Beasiswa SCHLUMBERGER Foundation Scholarship

Faculty for the Future

Forty-three academics were awarded Faculty for the Future grants in 2006-2007 bringing our current total to 67 women from 25 countries.

Women in science and technology
Faculty for the Future is a strategic partnership with the education sector in emerging economies to encourage women in their pursuit of academic careers in science and technology. Building on our worldwide network of university relationships, this program provides funding for advanced graduate study. The long-term goal is to support role models and improve gender balance at the faculty level so that more young women are attracted into scientific disciplines.

Grant recipients in the Faculty for the Future program are expected to return to their home countries to continue their academic careers.
