The 2006 Anita Borg Scholarships
January 9, 2006
Posted by April Yu, University Programs Team, and Emily Nishi, Diversity Program Manager
The wonderfully-named Dr. Anita Borg (1949 - 2003) was a rebel with a cause: ensuring that technology itself has positive outcomes, and dismantling barriers that keep women and minorities from entering computing and technology fields. Today the
Anita Borg Institute for Women and Technology
carries on her vision. And because Google shares that passion, we are pleased to sponsor the
2006 Anita Borg Scholarship program
. We are inspired by the
past scholarship recipients
-- and in hopes of finding more, the program is expanded this year to accept applications from students entering their senior year of undergraduate study as well as those enrolled in a graduate program.
Last year
we awarded 23 scholarships; this year we'd like to do more.

apply
yourself - the deadline is January 20.
