Who We Are

The US-China Education Trust (USCET), a program of the F.Y. Chang Foundation, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Washington, D.C., dedicated to advancing US-China relations through education and exchange for next generation leaders.

Founded in 1998, USCET brings together students, scholars, and policymakers to deepen US knowledge of China, strengthen Chinese understanding of the United States, and center the voices of individuals who make up the bilateral relationship.

Our Program Areas


USCET advances American expertise on China by strengthening American understanding of contemporary China, supporting the next generation of America’s China experts, and building expertise and fostering meaningful engagement as opportunities for direct study and fieldwork in China have sharply declined.


USCET deepens China’s understanding of the U.S. by establishing and strengthening American Studies as a recognized academic discipline in China while providing Chinese scholars and audiences with authoritative insights into American society, politics, and culture.


USCET elevates the Asian American experience by amplifying Asian American voices and stories as an integral part of understanding contemporary American society and culture while building bridges of cultural understanding between American and Chinese audiences.
