The program is adressed to researchers who manage their research projects in the STEM areas, and who are employed in Polish academic and scientific institutions. The scholarship allows an implementation of a short-term research and/or didactic project as well as the expansion of knowledge in the field of commercialization of science and effective writing of grant applications in institutions in the USA.

The scholarships are awarded in the areas of STEM (i.e. science, technology, engineering, mathematics), with the exception of projects requiring direct contact with the patient. Only projects in disciplines within the field of engineering and technical sciences and the fiels of exact sciences are accepted. The priority is given to: astronomy, computer science, mathematics, biological sciences, chemical sciences and physical sciences.

Program’s objectives

  2. the scholarship holder broadens his knowledge of the organizational structure and financial system of American scientific institutions, the commercialization of science and the effective writing of grant applications.
Host institution
