Essential Google Scholarships Every Aspiring Tech Professional Should Know

Introduction to Google Scholarships

When I embarked on my journey in Computer Science, I struggled to find a consolidated source for scholarships, conferences, and fellowships. I vividly recall creating an extensive Excel sheet filled with various links and resources I discovered throughout my search. I compiled scholarships similarly, and although some of the links are outdated, I still share the relevant ones with my mentees.

Google Conference Scholarships

Scholarships for conferences are categorized by regions: Americas, Africa, and Asia (commonly referred to as APAC). Each region offers various scholarships with distinct application deadlines. I recommend setting reminders in your calendar to alert you when applications become available. More information can be found [here](insert_link).

In this section, I will outline the unique scholarships offered by Google that may be applicable to your region and circumstances.

Google Lime Scholarship

In collaboration with Lime Connect, a non-profit organization, Google provides support to students with disabilities pursuing educational and career opportunities in computer science. Awardees will receive $10,000 USD (for students in the U.S.) or $5,000 CAD (for those in Canada). Please note that applications for the 2022–2023 cohort are currently closed, but keep an eye out for openings in the second semester of 2023. For further inquiries about the scholarship, you can reach Lime at [email protected]. More information is available [here](insert_link).

Google Europe Students with Disabilities Scholarship

Google has partnered with EmployAbility, a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting students with disabilities. This scholarship aims to support university students in Europe and Israel who are pursuing their academic goals in computer science. Award recipients will receive €7,000 (or the local equivalent) for the next academic year. Please note that some eligibility criteria are strict; applicants must be enrolled in or accepted at an accredited university in Europe or Israel for the academic year of the grant.

Google Student Veterans of America Scholarship

In support of military veterans, Google has established the Google SVA Scholarship in collaboration with Student Veterans of America. This scholarship is designed for student veterans pursuing degrees in computer science in the U.S. Recipients will be awarded $10,000 USD for the academic year.

These scholarships represent the latest opportunities Google has provided. Be sure to bookmark this article for future reference, as it can assist you in advancing your career in technology, especially if you belong to an underrepresented group.
