Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellowship Programme for Students

432

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is inviting you to apply for a targeted fellowship programme to encourage women to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), with a particular focus on nuclear science and technology. The programme is named after physicist and two-time Nobel laureate Marie Sklodowska-Curie.

The programme supports young women studying in fields related to the IAEA’s activities, such as nuclear energy, to promote the safe and peaceful use of nuclear science and technology, such as nuclear engineering, nuclear physics and chemistry, nuclear medicine, isotopic techniques, radiation biology, as well as in the areas of nuclear safety, security, non-proliferation, and nuclear law.

The scholarship is open to women from IAEA member countries (Lithuania is a member of the IAEA) who are studying or have just enrolled in a master’s degree programme in nuclear sciences at accredited universities. Applications for the scholarship will be accepted until 30 September 2022.

For more information on eligibility criteria, the fields of research to be funded, how to apply and the documents required, please visit the IAEA website.

This is a great opportunity to nurture the next generation of women STEM leaders who will drive the development of science and technology in our country.
