Named after pioneer physicist and twice Nobel Prize laureate Marie Sklodowska-Curie, the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellowship Programme (MSCFP) aims to inspire and encourage young women to pursue a career in the nuclear field, by providing highly motivated female students with scholarships for Master’s programmes and an opportunity to pursue an internship facilitated by the IAEA for up to 12 months, supporting an inclusive workforce of both men and women who contribute to and drive global scientific and technological innovation. Scholarships are awarded annually, with 150-200 female students selected per year.

Every year, China contributes 10 seats to MSCFP for international female students who pursue their master study in China. TUNEM is authorized to nominate its students to MSCFP.

In 2023 IAEA Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellowship Programme application cycle, TUNEM has nominated 7 fresh female students and 5 are awarded.
