International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) calls to participate in Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellowship Programme (MSCFP). The IAEA has launched a Fellowship Programme to enable more women from around the world to pursue a STEM career, with a special focus on nuclear science and technology. Named after pioneer physicist and twice Nobel Prize recipient Marie Sklodowska-Curie, the Programme aims to inspire and encourage women to pursue a professional career in nuclear science and technology. In the long term, the Programme will contribute to a new generation of female STEM leaders, who will drive scientific and technological developments in their countries.

The programme supports young women studying in nuclear related fields relevant to the IAEA’s work to advance the safe, secure and peaceful uses of nuclear science and technology such as nuclear engineering, nuclear physics and chemistry, nuclear medicine, isotopic techniques, radiation biology, nuclear safety, nuclear security, non-proliferation and nuclear law.

The IAEA MSCFP is open to young female students from IAEA Member States who are accepted by or enrolled in an accredited university in Master’s programme in a nuclear related field. Applications are accepted until September 30, 2022.
