Apply for WINDPOWER Fellowship

Rudd Mayer Memorial Fellowships

Each year, Women of Wind Energy awards fellowships to women college students or recent graduates to attend the annual American Wind Energy Association WINDPOWER conference. The fellowship honors wind industry pioneer Rudd Mayer of Boulder, Colorado, who passed away in 2002.

The Rudd Mayer Memorial Fellowships support women to participate in WINDPOWER, attending seminars on current wind energy issues, viewing state-of-the-art technology, meeting women and men in the wind energy field, and connecting with employers about potential internships or permanent positions.

The fellowship is awarded on a competitive basis. Current women students or recent graduates of college, university, or technical certificate programs, interested in pursuing a career in the United States renewable energy industry, are eligible to apply. Selection is based on commitment to renewable energy development, academic achievement, potential for future contributions to the U.S. renewable energy community, and financial need
