Friday, August 28, 2015
Posted by Michael Rennaker, Google University Relations
In 2009, Google created the
PhD Fellowship program
to recognize and support outstanding graduate students doing exceptional research in Computer Science and related disciplines. Now in its seventh year, our fellowship programs have collectively supported over 200 graduate students in
Australia
,
China and East Asia
,
India
,
North America
,
Europe and the Middle East
who seek to shape and influence the future of technology.
Reflecting our continuing commitment to building mutually beneficial relationships with the academic community, we are excited to announce the 44 students from around the globe who are recipients of the award. We offer our sincere congratulations to Google’s 2015 Class of PhD Fellows!
