Deadline: November 13, 2015

The Schlumberger Foundation is now accepting applications for the 2016/20176 Faculty for the Future Fellowships. The Faculty for the Future program, launched in 2004, awards fellowships to women from developing and emerging economies to pursue PhD or Post-doctorate studies in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) disciplines at leading universities worldwide. Applicants are chosen via a rigorous selection process based on academic performance, outstanding references, research relevance, and commitment to teaching as well as the ability to be a change agent and inspire other young women into STEM pursuits.

The ultimate goal of the Faculty for the Future program is to create a community of women leaders in STEM, who will support the socio-economic development of their developing home countries. The annual forum offers a unique environment that encourages an open dialogue about the challenges and opportunities that face women in STEM.

Grants can be up to $50,000 USD per year for PhD courses and a maximum of  $40,000 USD for post-doc programs.
