The advancing women in science awards and scholarships provide visibility and recognition of the contributions of brilliant scientists. They also offer role models and encouragement to the next generation.
The AWIS distinguished doctoral research scholarship is awarded to an AWIS member whose dissertation research project is judged likely to make important and original contributions to their field. This $10,000 award is intended for a pre-doctoral student in Life Sciences, Physical Sciences, Behavioral Sciences, Mathematics or Engineering who is a woman expecting to graduate within 2 years of the application deadline.
The AWIS Opportunity Scholarships for Career Re-entry provide up to two women (AWIS members with a bachelor's degree in a STEM-related field) who will receive individual awards of $2,500 to be used for expenses that will support and enable a return to a STEM career after being out of the workforce for more than one year. Scholarships may be used for job search fees, technology needs, commuting, family care, additional education, participation in an incubator, or start-up fees for a scientific innovation or product.
