If you’re a brilliant young woman eyeing a future in economics, statistics, engineering, or computing—and you’re facing financial hurdles—then Europe’s most prestigious financial institution has just dropped the opportunity of the year!

The ECB is encouraging diverse women from all EU member states to apply, including those of different ages, ethnicities, abilities, religions, and sexual orientations.
