Google is committed to bridging the gap between academic study and professional internships for underrepresented groups in the field of computer science. That’s why the company is pleased to announce the 2024 STEP internship in India, which will be open to underrepresented groups who will be in the second year of their university studies by the summer of 2024 and are studying Computer Science or a related subject.
This program is open to all qualified university students and includes three main components: a software project, skills-based training, and professional development. It aims to inspire underrepresented students to continue in the field of computer science and address diversity in the technology industry. Google recognizes that many aspiring computer scientists could benefit from a program like this, particularly those who may face additional barriers to entry.
At Google, engineers are changing the world with their technical skills. They are revolutionizing search, working on massive scalability and storage solutions, large-scale applications, and entirely new platforms for developers around the world. From Google Ads to Chrome, Android to YouTube, Social to Local, Google engineers are creating technological achievements that impact millions, if not billions, of users.
The Google STEP Internship offers a 10-12 week summer trainee program that includes a development project to work on with a team of Googlers and other STEP Interns. Participants will enhance their coding skills, gain exposure to tools and programming languages, attend ongoing technical talks by executive Googlers, match with a Google Engineer, and engage in social activities, community building, and networking. The program starts in May 2024, and the application deadline is on January 19, 2024. If you are a member of a group that is historically underrepresented in the technology industry and want to apply, visit Google’s official website to learn more and submit your application.
