The Yale Young Global Scholars Program
To ensure that students from all around the globe have access to Yale's renowned educational and leadership programs, the Yale Institution established the Yale Young Global Scholars program. The program's goal is to provide students with opportunities like these. The primary purpose of the YYGS program is to prepare the young of today to assume positions of leadership on a worldwide scale in the near future.
The mission of the YYGS program is to bring together the world's best high school students so that they may change the world for the better. Bringing these pupils together into a cohesive unit is the key to achieving this goal. This network will grow by using already connections in place around the globe. More than 125 different nationalities are represented among the roughly 4,000 undergraduate students at Yale University throughout each of the university's two-week terms. Therefore, be sure you're ready to join a community that includes some of the world's most intelligent and diverse high school students from all corners of the globe.
Students have the ability to attend any one of the three sessions that YYGS offers throughout the year and choose from a wide range of courses to participate in. Having said that, it's important to note that not every subject is addressed during each and every session. This suggests that certain courses have session limitations, which in turn enhances the amount of rivalry that occurs inside the courses. The following educational opportunities will be made available to applicants of YYGS beginning in the year 2020:
- Biomedical and Biological Research
- Language, Thought, and Cultural Practice
- Politics Economics and Law
- Addressing Global Issues
- A&E (Applications of Science)
