[Francisco A Tomei Torres]

Applications for Google’s Computer Science Summer Institute (CSSI) are open NOW! To apply, complete the application on g.co/cssi. Don’t forget to complete the short essay questions in the application and attach your transcript. Applications close Friday, April 29 at 11:59 pm PT.

As a friendly reminder, CSSI is an online, four-week introduction to computer science (CS) for rising first year college students with a passion for technology — especially students who identify with groups that have been historically marginalized in the field. CSSI seeks to inspire the tech leaders and innovators of tomorrow and build self confidence, agency, and efficacy. Students will learn computer science fundamentals, participate in workshops to promote self-care, identity, career, and skill development, and build community with peers and industry professionals. CSSI is July 11-August 5, 2022 from 9am-1pm in your local timezone.

Here’s what a previous student had to say about CSSI:

“Coming in not knowing, not writing more than a few lines of code before, I learned what it is like to be in the field and what I am interested in. I made connections that will last a lifetime and built relationships with my peers and instructors that I will cherish. The program couldn't be any better.”

Should you have any questions as you work on your application, please see the Frequently Asked Questions section on the CSSI website. Thank you for your interest in CSSI, and we look forward to receiving your application!
