Google Engineering Practicum Internship Program
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, software developers and
engineers, particularly those who are historically underrepresented in the field. Many aspiring computer
scientists and engineers 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 Engineering Practicum Internship Program for 2012.
