Amelia Earhart Fellowship
Amelia Earhart Fellowships are awarded each year to as many as 30 female scientists worldwide in the field of aerospace engineering in order to strengthen the position of women in aerospace-related sciences or aerospace-related engineering. The US$10,000 fellowship is in memory of the aviation pioneer Amelia Earhart, who in 1932 became the first woman (and the second person after Charles Lindbergh) to fly across the Atlantic. The fellowship is awarded by Zonta International, an association of professional women in responsible positions who help improve conditions for women with respect to legal, political, economic, occupational and health matters. The first fellowship award dates from 1938.
