Eligibility

The six inaugural awards will be available in 2018 and aim to fund one woman per area of STEM2D concentration in the early career stage where they have concluded their advanced degree training but are not at the level of tenure in their accredited university or design school institution.

The program will help build a larger pool of highly-trained researchers to meet the growing needs of academia and industry.
