In celebration of our first 15 years in business, Avanade is investing in the future of young women. We are giving 15 university women a scholarship to pursue an education in science, technology, engineering or math (STEM) and kick-start their careers.
With women under-represented in these fields, we are pleased to help close this gap for aspiring students with STEM aspirations.
The 15 for 15 Avanade Scholarship Program is a long-term commitment by Avanade building a network of women. In additional to a scholarship, Avanade provides mentoring, a support network and ultimately an alumni network for these young women as their education and careers grow. They will get the opportunity to go to events to empower and upskill them, such as Avanade’s Innovation annual summit.
Each year we identify universities to work with to identify women who are eligible to receive an Avanade scholarship. To date we have scholarships at University College London, University of Pretoria, California Polytechnic Institute of Pomona (CalPoly Pomona), Shanghai University, Milan Polytechnic and New Jersey Institute of Technology.
