Good Luck.

+ Supporting women in technology +

For several years, Google has honored the legacy of computer scientist
Dr. Anita Borg with a scholarship program designed to encourage women
to pursue careers in computer science and technology. The awards are
$10,000 scholarships for outstanding female undergraduate and graduate
students completing their degrees in computer science or related
fields. Why are we doing this? Because we believe in what the Anita
Borg Institute calls the "virtuous cycle." Through this scholarship
program and other efforts, we hope more women can be encouraged to
embrace engineering and technical professions and learn the skills of
leadership. Then they can use those capabilities to influence how
technology is designed and used, and focus on practical solutions to
global issues - energy, food, illiteracy, environment, elder care,
disease control - that confront us all. As the products and services
resulting from their innovations permeate the global market, new
generations of women will follow, in a profession that is increasingly
more supportive of women.

The Institute is named for a renowned computer scientist who spent her
life inspiring and motivating women to become active participants and
leaders in the technology revolution that can benefit all of us. For
the 2006-2007 academic year, Google received 324 applications from
students at 90 different universities across the country. We awarded
scholarship support to 47 young women, and look forward to their
successes in the coming years.
