Johns Hopkins University graduate Oladotun "Dotun" Opasina has been named a Schwarzman Scholar, the first student from the university to win the newly established award.

Opasina, a 24-year-old from Nigeria who graduated in May with a master's degree in engineering management, is one of 129 students to win a Schwarzman scholarship this year. The scholarships provide all expenses for a year at Beijing's Tsinghua University, to study, travel, and develop a better understanding of China.

As a Schwarzman Scholar, Opasina plans to study public policy, specifically the role technology plays in China, looking for parallels that could benefit his home country. He called the opportunity "pretty exciting."
