Women in Southeast Asia, including the Philippines, who want to pursue a master's degree in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) fields can take advantage of a newly launched program by the United Kingdom. The program, the ASEAN-UK SAGE Women in STEM Scholarships, aims to address gender disparities in STEM education and employment within ASEAN countries and Timor-Leste.
The project will provide 11 successful female applicants from all ten ASEAN member states and Timor-Leste with a fully funded one-year opportunity for a master’s degree at the University of Warwick or Imperial College London. The scholarship will cover stipends, travel costs, visas and health coverage fees in addition to the tuition fee. We take pride in taking the lead in implementing the ASEAN-UK SAGE Women in STEM Scholarships, aligning with the UK's priority to support women, girls and marginalized communities
