Applications\u00a0for the Liu Scholars program are now open. Current UBC doctoral students in any year from any discipline are invited to apply.<\/p>\n
The Liu Scholars program was first established in 2009 and seeks to bring together exceptional students who are interested in using their research and disciplinary expertise to work on public policy and global issues. Since 2021, the School of Public Policy and Global Affairs (SPPGA) has been selecting students enrolled in a UBC Ph.D. program to carry out work on a few identified themes for the year. The projects will be carried out, in collaboration with, or under the mentorship of, one or more core faculty members at SPPGA. Preference would be given to students not already working with a SPPGA faculty member or having a SPPGA faculty member on their Ph.D. committees.<\/p>\n
The themes for 2024-25 are social protection, development, food security, human rights, international trade, militarization, warfare, data, algorithmic governance, energy policy, and climate policy.<\/p>\n
To apply for the Liu Scholar program, propose a project with a definite output (i.e., a paper, a report, gallery exhibition) to be carried out in collaboration with, or under the mentorship of, a member of the core faculty<\/a> at SPPGA. Proposed projects should be clearly related to the proposed themes listed above and demonstrate relevance to public policy and global issues. Once accepted, you will be designated a Liu Scholar for one year, with the start date to be decided with the supervisor. An award amount of $2000 will be released at the end of the year, when you submit the output and your SPPGA mentor or collaborator approves it.
