About MPOWER Women in STEM Scholarship

The MPOWER Women in STEM Scholarship recognizes the extraordinary potential of women in the sciences and aims to address gender inequality in STEM fields. Women majoring in computer engineering, nuclear science, and software development often face significant challenges in securing funding for their education. This scholarship program seeks to empower these women by providing financial support and highlighting their role as future leaders and innovators.

MPOWER Financing is committed to enabling talented female students to study and work in North America, thus closing the gender gap in the STEM workforce.
