Google scholarships recognize 87 computer science students in Europe, Middle East, and Africa
April 24, 2012
The
Google Anita Borg Memorial Scholarship
honors the memory of
Dr. Anita Borg
, who devoted her life to encouraging the presence of women in computing and founded the Institute for Women in Technology in 1997. The
Google Europe Scholarship for Students with Disabilities
aims to help dismantle barriers that keep students with disabilities from entering computing, encourages them to excel in their studies and become active role models and leaders in creating technology.
This year we’d like to recognize and congratulate the 40 Google Anita Borg Memorial Scholars, 10 Google Scholarship for Students with Disabilities Scholars and the 37 Google Anita Borg Memorial Finalists, all of whom attend universities in Europe, the Middle East or Africa.
Here is a
full list
[PDF] of this year’s Scholars and Finalists, along with the universities they attend.
These students will attend the annual Google EMEA Scholars’ Retreat this summer, where they will have the opportunity to attend tech talks on Google products, network with other scholars and participate in social activities. The retreat will be held in June in the Google Zurich office, Switzerland.
To find out more about how the scholarships and retreat have impacted the lives of others, take a look at the following two videos:
