Selected Professions Fellowship Program

Selected Professions Fellowships support women who are pursuing their first full-time master's or professional degree in fields with historically low female participation, particularly in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) disciplines, at accredited U.S. institutions. The fellowship provides a $20,000 stipend disbursed in two equal payments to support women pursuing degrees in Architecture, Natural and Physical Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, or Medicine. This fellowship is designed to advance women's participation in professions where they have been historically underrepresented and to support women who demonstrate academic excellence, well-defined career goals in STEM fields, and a commitment to supporting other women and girls through service in their communities or professions. Special consideration is given to applicants who intend to serve under-resourced populations and communities or pursue public interest areas.
