Amelia Earhart Memorial Scholarship Fund

Research Scholar Grants

The purpose of the grant is for:

  • The documented history of woman's place in the development and furtherance of aviation and aerospace.
  • Documenting and fostering the leadership role of women in all facets of aviation including social, economic, engineering, historical, political, etc.
  • The expansion of human knowledge in areas of specific differences faced by women in aviation: as pilots, as engineers, as administrators, in military aviation, etc. Special disciplines applied to these problems could include, but not be limited to: history, sociology, psychology, biology, economics, business administration, human engineering, ergonomics, etc.

It may be used with other research activities such as: completion of research requirements for an advanced degree or matching funds with other grants to fund a program larger than either grant could sponsor independently.
