Women in Economics Scholarship

The European Central Bank (ECB) has launched a scholarship programme to support women pursuing a master’s degree in economics in Europe. The scholarship is part of the ECB’s initiatives to promote diversity and gender balance in central banking.

 

"We aspire to be an organisation in which diversity is welcomed and appreciated for the richness that it offers. Enabling diversity is vital to our institution to deliver the best possible outcome for our staff and for Europe,” said Mario Draghi, President of the ECB.

 

The €10,000 per year scholarship for tuition and other related costs will be awarded to up to five female students from lower-income backgrounds. It also includes a study visit to the ECB and mentoring by an ECB economist. After completing their master’s degrees, scholarship recipients will be encouraged to apply for an ECB traineeship and the ECB Graduate Programme. The award is merit-based and requires a high grade average in prior studies. The deadline for applications is 19 June 2019.
