Artificial intelligence and machine learning are transforming every sector — from health, climate, and economics to governance, education, and public policy. Yet women remain significantly underrepresented in these influential domains. This fellowship provides financial resources, mentorship, and technical training to empower women PhD candidates to excel in AI/ML research and shape the future of ethical and inclusive innovation.
The Women in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) Doctoral Fellowship invites applications from outstanding women scholars advancing the use of AI/ML methodologies in their PhD research across any field of the social sciences. The fellowship strengthens women's leadership in computational and data-driven research, addresses persistent gender gaps in advanced technical fields, and supports research that applies AI/ML to societal, scientific, or development impact.
