Description:
Among other things, Google provides scholarships to encourage
students of various backgrounds, genders and ethnicities to excel in
their studies. In hopes that these programs will help dismantle
barriers that keep women and minorities from entering computing and
technology fields, Google offers the following scholarships:

the legacy of Anita Borg and her efforts to encourage women to pursue
careers in computer science and technology. The scholarship is offered
in the United States, Europe, and Australia.
