In the UK, less than 10 percent of women make up the engineering workforce, while in the US, only around a quarter of those in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) occupations are women. Similar statistics are reported across the world in male-dominated industries such as business, engineering and technology.

Will the gender disparity in male-dominated industries ever change? The answer seems to be yes – but gradually. Helping to speed up the process are various organizations offering scholarships for women preparing for careers in male-dominated industries. Often, the funding is accompanied by additional support, including mentorship and special events or workshops.

Below is a selection of global and region-specific scholarships for women in male-dominated industries, including scholarships for women in engineering and sciencescholarships for women in technology and scholarships for women in business.
