密歇根大学工程校友和技术企业家James Lu赠送了1 000万美元的礼物,启动了James F. Lu世界研究员方案,在五年时间里,在AI、计算、医学和空间技术等工程领域支持了多达55名国际博士生。 A $10 million gift from James Lu, a University of Michigan engineering alumnus and tech entrepreneur, has launched the James F. Lu World Fellows Program, supporting up to 55 international PhD students in engineering fields like AI, computing, medicine, and space technology over five years. 每位研究员将获得至多150 000美元的多年供资,第一组从2026年秋开始。 Each fellow will receive up to $150,000 in multi-year funding, with the first cohort starting in fall 2026. 该方案旨在吸引全球顶尖人才,同时收紧国际研究资金,并配合美国一所公立大学颁发第一博士150周年。 The program aims to attract top global talent amid tightening international research funding and aligns with the 150th anniversary of the first PhD awarded by a U.S. public university. 由于大多数国际博士毕业生在毕业后仍留在美国, 大学领导人和卢强调这项计划在加强美国研究领导和经济方面的作用。 University leaders and Lu emphasize the program’s role in strengthening U.S. research leadership and the economy, as most international PhD graduates stay in the country post-graduation.
