About the Program

The Luksic Fellowship of the Schwarzman Scholars program is an annual funding designation for one Chilean or Latin American candidate for the Master’s program at Schwarzman College at Tsinghua University. This program was created to respond to the international landscape of the 21st century, under the belief that the success of future leaders around the world depends upon an understanding of China’s role in global trends.

Schwarzman Scholars supports up to 200 Scholars annually from the U.S., China, and around the world to study a one-year Master’s in Global Affairs at Beijing’s Tsinghua University — ranked first in Asia as an indispensable base for China’s political, business, and technological leadership. Candidates chosen for this highly selective program live in Beijing for a year of study and cultural immersion.

All participants receive a full funding package that includes: tuition & fees, room & board, an in-country study tour, travel to and from Beijing, health insurance, and a stipend for personal expenses.

About the Program

The Luksic Visiting Scholars Program at Stanford CLAS is one of the four recently created programs supported by the Luksic family at Stanford.

Admitted professors or academics from Chilean universities will have the opportunity to spend one quarter on campus at Stanford, where the CLAS will support research and writing, primarily focused on topics related to Latin America. On-campus at CLAS, the Luksic Visiting Scholars will have access to a wide array of experts, libraries, and other archives to conduct world-class research at one of the top universities in the world.

These scholars can be from any discipline, and admissions decisions are made exclusively by Stanford University’s CLAS.

For complete application details, please see the Stanford CLAS website.

About the Program

In 2000, the Luksic family endowed a fellowship fund at Harvard’s David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies, to finance one Luksic Visiting Scholar from Chile every semester on campus in Cambridge. These Visiting Scholars are given the tools and resources and finances needed to conduct a research project in their area of expertise and further their academic interests as experts in their fields.

About the Program

This Fellowship aims to support Chilean or other Latin Americans admitted in the 2-year residential MBA program at Harvard Business School (HBS).

Harvard Business School offers a two-year, full-time MBA program with a general management curriculum focused on real-world practice.

Becoming a student at HBS means joining a global community that propels lifelong learning and career support alongside peers, faculty, and staff who will both challenge you and cheer you on as you find and accelerate your path.

Lifelong impact: Through case method classes, FIELD projects, multimedia simulations, and more, students will exercise the leadership skills they will practice in business and beyond.

Students graduate from HBS not only with increased knowledge but more importantly, with grounding and practice in how to make difficult decisions and what it means to assume leadership in a global environment.

Students who have been admitted to Harvard Business School (HBS) are eligible for support from this Fellowship. Students do not apply for the Fellowship directly; the Fellowship is awarded as part of the overall HBS financial aid process. After completing the HBS financial aid application and it is determined that you will receive need-based fellowships as part of your financial aid package, you will automatically be considered for the Fellowship. For additional details on how financial need is determined and whether you may be eligible, please visit to the Harvard MBA website.

About the Program

In July 2020, a new scholarship fund supported by the Luksic family was created at the renowned London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), aimed at Chilean students admitted to the Master of Public Policy (MPP) program of the university.

The MPP is a one-year master’s degree which aims to teach the “craft of government“: the knowledge, understanding, and experience that a policy professional needs to thrive in their career. This graduate program combines economics, political science, philosophy, and quantitative analysis from LSE’s School of Public Policy, with a focus on the management of contemporary public organizations.

Admissions and aid decisions are made exclusively and independently by the London School of Economics and Political Science.

Update (from April 26th, 2022): For those who received letters of acceptance to LSE’s Master’s programs (including the MPP and MPA programs) and would like to apply for financial aid, the Graduate Financial Support application deadline has been extended until May 3rd at 9am UK time GMT+1.

About the Program

This scholarship has generally been awarded to one or two outstanding Chilean applicants to the Blavatnik School of Government at the University of Oxford every year since the program’s inception. In line with the spirit of improving public policy and giving policy makers the skills they need to succeed, this Masters in Public Policy program aims to give students critical tools to find answers to public policy challenges. It is geared towards building the wide range of skills needed for public service, responding to the demand for flexible policy experts who can also deploy their skills as negotiators, analysts and communicators.

About the Program

In March 2020, a new series of programs supported by the Luksic family was created to support Chilean students and academics studying at Stanford University.

The Luksic Family Stanford Law School (SLS) Fund provides one of these opportunities.

Chilean students who have secured admission to Stanford Law School and have demonstrated financial need are eligible for fellowship funding to pursue the highly selective Doctor of the Science of Law (JSD) program. This is the most advanced degree conferred by the law school, and is considered a doctorate equivalent to a Ph.D. It is designed for those interested in becoming scholars and teachers of law and social sciences.

As with the other Luksic Scholarships at Stanford, admissions and aid decisions are made exclusively and independently by Stanford Law School.
