The Liu Scholars program was created in 2009 in order to bring together exceptional PhD students from across UBC to facilitate collaborative, interdisciplinary research on global issues; to strengthen global networks; and to develop a community for research dissemination. The program has over 100 Alumni and approximately 100 current Scholars. Scholar profiles are listed on our website on the Connect page under “People.”
Applications are now open. To learn more becoming a Liu Scholar and to access the application form, please visit our Learning page.
