Schwarzman Scholars is a fully funded, one-year master's degree and leadership programme at Tsinghua University in Beijing, designed to prepare the world's next generation of leaders. Each year a new class is selected from an international pool of distinguished candidates, bringing together young leaders from all regions and sectors of society. The curriculum, designed in collaboration with world-leading universities, combines a core curriculum that equips scholars to navigate China's role in the global economy, elective courses tailored to individual career goals, a required capstone project, interdisciplinary leadership courses and a Deep Dive experience, alongside innovative student-life programming that builds a close scholar community. The comprehensive scholarship covers tuition and fees, room and board, an in-country study tour, travel to and from Beijing, health insurance, and a stipend for personal expenses. Applicants must hold an undergraduate degree (or be on track to complete one), be between 18 and 28 years of age as of August 1 of their Schwarzman Scholars year, and be proficient in English, as all teaching is conducted in English. The programme looks for leadership abilities, exemplary character and integrity, academic aptitude and intellectual ability, empathy and intercultural competency, open mindedness and entrepreneurial spirit. Selection is rigorous: candidates complete an online application with a CV, a Leadership Essay and a Statement of Purpose, transcripts, three letters of recommendation and a short video introduction, and are reviewed by a committee of business, government and academic leaders.
