The Generation Google Scholarship for Women in Computer Science was created to assist prospective computer scientists in their pursuit of excellence and leadership in the profession. Women in Africa, the Middle East, and Europe are invited to partake in this opportunity.
For the academic year 2022-2023, selected students will receive a 7,000 EUR (or local equivalent) prize. The strength of each candidate’s influence on diversity demonstrated leadership, and academic background will be used to award scholarships. Qualified students who meet all of the program’s requirements are eligible to apply. Women who are interested in computer science should apply immediately.
Application deadline: December 10, 2021
Selected students will receive a 7,000 EUR award (or local equivalent) under the Generation Google Award. The scholarship award must be spent on tuition, fees, books, supplies, and equipment required for the student’s classes at their primary university.
Scholarship recipients must be enrolled as full-time students for the 2022-2023 academic year. Enrollment will be verified after the winners are selected, and all scholarship payments will be made directly to the student to be used towards tuition and education-related expenses.
Google reserves the right to withhold the award for any scholar who no longer meets the eligibility requirements and revoke the award for any scholar who does not maintain the eligibility requirements. Selected recipients will receive instructions from Google on how to receive the award. Failure to complete these steps by the specified deadline will disqualify recipients from receiving the award.
Recipients may defer their award for up to one (1) year from the time of originally planned payment on a case by case basis as determined by Google. Google employees are not eligible to apply for Google scholarships. Persons who are (1) residents of embargoed countries, (2) ordinarily resident in embargoed countries, or (3) otherwise prohibited by applicable export controls and sanctions programs may not apply for this scholarship.
