Opportunities are live for the 2019
Computer Science Summer Institute (CSSI) and the Generation Google Scholarship (both available to graduating high school seniors in the US or Canada). Learn more about both programs below and
apply before March 18!
What
Google's Computer Science Summer Institute (CSSI) is a three-week introduction to computer science (CS) for graduating high school seniors with a passion for technology — especially students from historically underrepresented groups in the field.
The program includes:
- A specially designed project-based curriculum that includes HTML/CSS, JavaScript, Python and Google App Engine to help prepare students for their first year of college CS
- Daily development sessions to help you prepare for future job opportunities
- An opportunity to interact directly with Google engineers
- Exposure and insight into Google’s internship programs and technical career opportunities
- Exposure and insight into Google’s internship programs and technical career opportunities
The Generation Google Scholarship helps aspiring computer scientists from underrepresented groups excel in technology and become leaders in the field. Selected students will receive 10,000 USD (for those studying in the US) or 5,000 CAD (for those studying in Canada) for the 2019-20120 school year. Please note, the Generation Google Scholarship and CSSI programs
share an application – only CSSI applicants will be considered for the scholarship.
Where & When
We offer several options for CSSI depending on where you may be attending school. You can find more details on location
here. Most of our programs run from June - August 2019.
Who
Any high school senior who plans to attend a four year institution in the US or Canada, has a passion for technology, and intends to enroll in a computer science, computer engineering, software engineering, or related department for the 2019-2020 academic year.
Why
Google is committed to increasing the enrollment and retention of students in the field of computer science. CSSI is not your average summer camp. It's an intensive, interactive, hands-on, and fun program that seeks to inspire the tech leaders and innovators of tomorrow by supporting the study of computer science, software engineering, and other closely-related subjects.
