The Ibn Khaldun Fellowship amplifies the impact of Saudi women postdocs through hands-on research with MIT faculty, and leadership and professional development opportunities at MIT.

“MIT’s deep and broad expertise across different scientific and engineering disciplines and highly collaborative spirit make for a truly unique setting in which to learn and innovate toward impact. The IBK fellowship provides incredible support for highly talented Saudi Arabian female scientists and engineers to engage, shape, and inspire this community and the world more broadly.”
