The Schlumberger Foundation Faculty for the Future program awards fellowships to women from developing and emerging economies to pursue PhD or post-doctoral studies in the physical sciences and related disciplines at top universities abroad. Launched in 2004, Faculty for the Future has grown to become a closeknit community of 194 pioneering women from 54 countries. Faculty for the Future applicants are selected for their leadership abilities and scientific talent. Grantees are awarded fellowships ranging from USD 25,000 to 50,000 per year. Ultimately, these women return home to become leaders, to strengthen their university faculties, to contribute to the socioeconomic development of their countries and to serve as powerful role models to attract more young women into the sciences.
