Zonta International is inviting women pursuing Ph.D. or doctoral degrees in aerospace engineering or space sciences to apply for the Amelia Earhart Fellowship, which provides financial support for advanced research and academic achievement in these fields.

Established in 1938 to honor the pioneering aviator Amelia Earhart, the Amelia Earhart Fellowship has a long-standing legacy of empowering women to excel in aerospace engineering and space sciences, fields where women remain significantly underrepresented.

The program has supported over 1,395 women from 81 countries, many of whom have gone on to become astronauts, aerospace engineers, professors, and leaders in their disciplines, demonstrating the transformative impact of this fellowship on advancing women’s roles in science and technology.

Each year, up to 30 women pursuing full-time Ph.D. or doctoral degrees in aerospace engineering or space sciences at accredited universities or colleges are selected to receive a US$12,000 fellowship to support their advanced studies.

Eligible applicants must be women of any nationality who have completed at least one year of a Ph.D./doctoral program or hold a master’s degree in an aerospace-applied field, and must not graduate before April 2028; post-doctoral researchers, Zonta International members, and previous Amelia Earhart Fellows are not eligible.
