Last year, 40 of the best technical Master's degree students from across the world studying at a Dutch university are selected to receive the ASML Technology Scholarship.
ASML fully recognizes the need for technical talent. Recipients receive financial support for both years of their Master's degree studies (financial support of EUR 5000 per year), a personal ASML mentor, and the opportunity to participate in a two year professional development programme that prepares them for life after graduation and introduction to ASML's business, specialists and knowledge.In return, ASML asks all scholarship students to do a Technology Ambassador project within their scholarship period. This means sharing your enthusiasm about technology and science with a target group of your choice, for example by giving guest lectures at high schools, posting You Tube videos on science subjects, or doing a technology project with underprivileged children.
