Outcomes

The Fellowship and its participants contribute measurably to scientific, technical, and academic progress and to the Fellowship goal of promoting Saudi women as leaders in their fields. Fellows produce a continual output of journal articles, conference publications, patents and other contributions.

“The Ibn Khaldun fellowship program is meticulously designed to empower Saudi women in STEM sciences who are highly underrepresented worldwide. It is tailored not only to cultivate technical expertise but also to nourish leadership skills, innovation and confidence.”
