Hello, everyone! Erin Massey from Career Services just sent me the following message a contact at Google about programs they are operating. Please see below! Cheers, Zach Hello from Google! I hope the winter break was as much of a break as possible. We're writing to let you know about igniteCS and Applied CS with Android, two Google programs that might be of interest to you and your students: *_igniteCS_* igniteCS provides funding and resources for groups of college and university students to make a difference in their local communities through Computer Science mentorship. Students design a mentorship program that best serves their local community, and Google provides resources, support and funding of up to $10,000 to help make it happen. igniteCS is designed to provide opportunities for undergraduate students to apply CS knowledge outside the classroom, and to foster an inclusive and welcoming CS environment for everyone. Applications will be accepted January 17th through February 19th. Check out our website <http://goo.gl/XZX4EM>for further details and join our G+ community <https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/104343670022027542965?e=-RedirectToSandbox>for more information as well! We hope you will encourage your students to apply and consider serving as their faculty advisor. The igniteCS team is here to help, so please reach out <mailto:ignitecs at google.com>if you have any questions! *_Applied CS_* Google is also looking for students who are passionate about CS enrichment, outreach and education to bring Applied CS with Android <https://cswithandroid.withgoogle.com/>to campus as a student facilitator. Facilitators act as the primary lead for the Applied CS with Android program at their university, partnering with faculty and students on planning and hosting the program workshops and code sprint. Eligible student facilitators should have completed a university-level data structures and algorithms course and ideally feel comfortable programming in Java. Student facilitators will gain exposure to the knowledge and skills relevant to industry-level software engineering careers. It’s a leadership and development opportunity that connects students to Googlers as well as a group of like-minded, passionate CS students globally. Selected facilitators will also get the chance to attend an in-person training bootcamp at Google in late February 2017 to learn more about the program, practice facilitation, and network with each other and Googlers in attendance. If you have students who you think would be interested in this program, please spread the word! Interested students can fill out our interest form <https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScGyMT5MD84XmPR5pAOqfNXRBnHXgeIYuvhyn5hOUz0sU9R-A/viewform> and we’ll send along the application. Whew! Thanks for your patience with this lengthy note. Let us know if you have any questions. Happiest of new years to you and yours.
