Deadline: April 30, 2025

Applications are open for the AFS Global STEM Accelerators 2025 – Full Scholarship for Young Girls in STEM. The Global STEM Accelerators program is an award-winning virtual exchange that tackles gender barriers in STEM and helps young women to become changemakers in their communities.

Over 12 weeks, girls worldwide (ages 15-17.5) engage in a hands-on curriculum—developed with the University of Pennsylvania Center for Social Impact Strategy (Penn CSIS)—that integrates STEM learning, social impact, and global competence. Scholars develop prototypes addressing global challenges, earn the Advanced Certificate on Global Competence for Social Impact from AFS and Penn CSIS, and join a network of global alumni.

Benefits

  • Scholars who complete the program earn the Advanced Certificate on Global Competence for Social Impact, awarded by AFS and the University of Pennsylvania Center for Social Impact Strategy.

Eligibility

  • Open to young women from anywhere in the world;
  • Must be 15-17.5 years old at the program start date;
  • Ability to participate fully, both online and in a classroom setting, in a program conducted entirely in English;
  • Interest in STEM, sustainability, and global competencies;
  • Curiosity and willingness to interact with diverse global peers and explore new cultures;
  • Have a computer, smartphone or other digital device to access the virtual program content;
  • An integrated webcam and microphone for participation in online dialogue sessions;
  • Stable internet or wifi connection;
  • Talented young women from all backgrounds who reflect the diversity of populations around the world, particularly underrepresented populations, and students with high financial need, are strongly encouraged to apply!

Application

The 12-week all-virtual Global STEM Accelerators exchange program will run from 31 May – 31 August, 2025.
