Laura Ng reeceives an Ethnic and Community Center Academic Achievement Award

Congratulations to Laura Ng on receiving an Ethnic and Community Center Academic Achievement Award sponsored by the Office of the Vice Provost for Graduate Education. 

Ng’s transdisciplinary research is rooted in the late 19th and early 20th-century Chinese diaspora. It investigates the connection between Chinese American communities in southern California and the home villages of those communities in Taishan, Guangdong, China. Using material culture, Ng’s research highlights the “transpacific circulation of people, goods and information.”

Laura is one of eight Stanford graduate students whose academic achievements and mentorship have greatly impacted their respective communities.  For more information, please see story on Stanford Report.
