2025 Lingnan W.T. Chan Fellowships

California | Full-time

The 2025 Lingnan W.T. Chan Fellowship Program is an international service-learning internship and cultural exchange program hosted by the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) and the University of Southern California (USC). Each Chan Fellow is assigned to intern at a non-profit that addresses a critical social need. UC Berkeley Chan Fellows will live and work in the San Francisco Bay Area; USC Chan Fellows will live and work in the Los Angeles area. With support and guidance from program organizers, the internships are designed to help the Fellows gain practical experience in service work, community support and inter-cultural cooperation. Fellows live in American homes for the full duration of the program. They also attend seminars on non-profit organization management and community development, cultural events, as well as mandatory weekly reflection meetings while in the United States.
