Entries are now open for the MPOWER Women in STEM Scholarship for female international/DACA students who are currently enrolled or accepted to study full-time in a STEM degree program.
In keeping with MPOWER’s commitment to empower high-potential global citizens to realize their educational aspirations — and become tomorrow’s leading scientists and innovators — this scholarship program focuses on women who will use their STEM degree to benefit society and the planet and who have the potential to serve as role models and advocates for women in STEM.
