On Monday, March 28, 2022, Sapienza’s Aula Magna hosted the #100ragazzeSTEM ceremony awarding 100 grants to outstanding female students in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics).

The initiative aims to tangibly promote an increase in the number of women in the scientific field by reducing the gender gap.

#100ragazzeSTEM provides a three-year scholarship (€ 3,255.00 per year) to girls resident outside the Lazio Region, leaving their Italian secondary school with top marks (100). CFUs will be taken into account to maintain the scholarship in subsequent years.
