Supporting the communities in which we work has always been important to Googlers. Consequently we’re happy to announce that applications are now open for the 4th annual Google Australia and New Zealand Anita Borg Scholarship.
We've simplified the application process this year, and it will remain open until June 1, 2009. Scholars and finalists will be selected on the basis of their academic strength, demonstrated leadership and community involvement. Scholars also receive a financial stipend.
In addition, we invite all finalists and scholars to an all-expenses paid networking retreat in our engineering centre in Sydney. The retreat provides an opportunity for students to connect; form friendships; discuss new technologies, opportunities and challenges; and participate in fun activities with their peers and industry professionals. Over the past three years, we've hosted close to 50 finalists and scholars studying computer science and related technical fields from 20 different Australian and New Zealand universities. We’ve been pleased to see the community grow year on year, with past alumni establishing student and industry networking groups in their home states, organising state-wide events for girls at high school, and becoming emerging leaders in industry and academia.
Check out the profiles of last year's scholars and finalists to find out which ones might be similar to you.
Applications close June 1, 2009. For complete details, please visit www.google.com.au/anitaborg.
As ever we look forward to expanding the scholarship, so please feel free to share details with others who might be interested!
