INSPIRE Potentials – MARVEL Master's Fellowships

An initiative to broaden the opportunities for women in science

This is an initiative started in 2016 by the NCCR MARVEL, and currently planned up until 2025 where we offer 6-months fellowships to women students to conduct their Master's research thesis in a group participating in MARVEL. There were 8 fellowships available every year (typically 4 for each round of applications, but with some flexibility in case of many excellent candidates); each fellowship amounts to 12'000 CHF. You can find here:

The next deadline of application will be 1st November 2025. The details for the call are not yet known. They will be shared here in due time. Stay also
tuned for new initiatives.

This initiative was initiated in close collaboration with the NCCR QSIT — Quantum Science and Technology, with a parallel offer in their field. Since 2021, the program there is continued by the Quantum Center, ETH Zürich and the NCCR SPIN
