Our scholarship and research grant opportunities

Scientific breakthroughs often arise from the contamination between different disciplines. This is especially true in life sciences, which are becoming increasingly intertwined with cutting-edge fields like artificial intelligence, robotics, data science, and nanotechnology.

Young people who dream of pursuing a career in STEM fields, therefore, cannot forego a multidisciplinary education and a thorough knowledge of the latest technologies.

That’s why the Dompé Foundation has handpicked for its program only those university degrees and research projects that perfectly embody this approach.
