By participating in the program, Ambassadors gain invaluable professional development and leadership skills as well as access to a worldwide network of diverse and dynamic scientists.

SIGN UP TODAY FOR THE Fall 2021 SEMENSTER

As an Ambassador, you will provide critical support to Dimensions Sciences by developing and contributing to fundraising campaigns that support underrepresented early-career scientists. 


You will organize virtual fundraisers to financially support our scholarships, awards, and mentoring programs; develop fundraising materials including social media toolkits and digital media (e.g.videos); and research and solicit donors. In exchange, you’ll gain professional and leadership development, personalized mentoring, and access to a worldwide network of diverse and dynamic scientists – ranging from those who are just starting out to the already well-established. 


Ambassadors commit to the program on a semester-by-semester basis. During their semester of participating, they commit to attend hour-long, monthly group meetings as well as well as 30–60-minute weekly team meetings. Upon completion of a successful semester, Ambassadors may reup for a second semester.
