  •  Summer Internship at Google for Computer Engineering Sophomores

    Thursday, Sep. 22, 2011 2:43 PM

    Google aspires to be an organization that reflects the globally diverse audience that our search engine and tools serve. We believe that in addition to hiring the best talent, a diversity of perspectives, ideas and cultures leads to the creation of better products and services. This diversity of our employees and partners serves as the foundation for us to better serve our diverse customers and stakeholders all over the world.

    Google is also invested in increasing the pipeline of future computer scientists and software developers, particularly those who are historically underrepresented in the field. Many aspiring computer scientists could benefit from a program that bridges the gap between academic study and a professional internship. Google wants to inspire these students to continue in the field with such a program.

    With this in mind, Google announces the fourth year of the Engineering Practicum internship program (formerly known as BOLD Practicum) for Summer 2012. Current sophomores majoring, or intending to major, in Computer Science or Electrical and Computer Engineering will be selected to participate in the Practicum. This program includes three main components: a software project, skills-based training, and professional development. We will have Engineering Practicum cohorts in four offices this year: Boston, MA; Mountain View, CA; New York, NY, and Kirkland (Seattle), WA.

    We invite you to join us for the 2012 Engineering Practicum program!

    This summer internship program includes:

    • Software Project: A 10-week development project that you will work on in a team of Googlers and other Engineering Practicum interns.
    • Skills-Based Training: Enhance your coding skills; get exposed to new tools and programming languages.
    • Professional Development: Attend weekly technical talks by senior Googlers. Additionally, learn how to enhance your resume, tackle technical interviews, and improve your presentation skills.
    • Mentorship: Be matched with a Google engineer, other than your manager, to guide you through your summer experience.
    • Fun: Social activities, community building and networking. Build a relationship with your peers.
    • Exposure: A unique glimpse into applying your computer science studies in a professional environment.

    Program qualifications:

    • Be currently enrolled in a 4-year BA/BS program, majoring, or intending to major, in Computer Science or Electrical and Computer Engineering, at a University in the United States or Canada.
    • Be eligible to work in the United States.
    • Be a current college sophomore.
    • Have taken at least two Computer Science courses.
    • Have programming experience in either Java, Python, C, or C++.

    Application Process

    The application process will include the standard online Student Application, as well as an essay submission. To view the application process and internship requirements, visit the application page.
