M.Arch 2 Student Lais De Lima Weba Receives Selected Professions Fellowship from the American Association of University Women (AAUW)
June 9, 2025
We’d like to congratulate Washington-Alexandria Architecture Center M.Arch 2 student Lais De Lima Weba for being selected as a recipient of the 2025-2026 Selected Professions Fellowship from the American Association of University Women (AAUW)!
The Selected Professions Fellowship Program promotes gender equity for women by providing funding in support of those pursuing a full-time course of study in targeted degree programs where women’s representation has traditionally been low.
American Association of University Women (AAUW) established these fellowships in 1970 with a grant from the Max C. Fleischmann Foundation, and over time, has broadened the program to foster broader representation of women in fast growing fields in which their proportional representation has not kept apace.
“Being awarded this fellowship gives me more confidence to believe in my work and that I'm going in the right direction with my professional goals. I feel very grateful to have support like this to follow my dreams!” - Lais de Lima Weba
