Language Partner Program
REAP pairs local Stanford students with new visiting students from China every quarter. Once paired, Partners meet regularly to learn about each other’s languages, cultures, customs, and explore Stanford and the surrounding Bay Area together.
Co-Authored Publications
Our faculty and research staff regularly co-author papers with students. We support and advise students as they conduct graduate-level research, analyze REAP data, and co-write and submit a paper ending in a publication with their name on the byline.
Hands-on Field Experiences
We work with students year-round to develop original research projects that build on REAP’s existing projects. Students take their research to the field for an incomparable learning experience where they apply qualitative and quantitative research techniques to answer their driving research question.
Summer Research Internships
Throughout the year, students travel to China to participate in project-based internships that offer them extensive hands-on qualitative research experience while working alongside faculty, senior research staff, and our local partners.
Research Mentoring & Scholarship
REAP provides more than just personalized one-on-one mentoring, we also give students access to our data, connect them to researchers and organizations in the field, and advise them on their theses and dissertations. We also connect students to funding opportunities at Stanford and beyond.
Post-graduate Placements
Every year we place recent graduates in our China-side field offices to work as academic editors for our faculty and graduate students. They spend a year immersed in the Chinese language and culture while also gaining field research experience and co-authoring publications. We also sponsor students for external placements with organizations like Fulbright.
