The awards are offered at the Dublin College in conjunction with Three Ireland, with the goal of awarding 25 STEM scholarships for women at undergraduate level over the next few years. The scholarships, valued at €20,000 each, over a 4-year undergraduate degree, are aimed at attracting women from Ireland and across the world to study STEM subjects at Trinity College Dublin. The scholarships will be awarded annually over five years and started in 2022.
