Posted by Michael Rennaker, Program Manager
Google created the
PhD Fellowship program
in 2009 to recognize and support outstanding graduate students doing exceptional research in Computer Science and related disciplines. Now in its eighth year, our fellowship program has supported hundreds of future faculty, industry researchers, innovators and entrepreneurs.
Reflecting our continuing commitment to supporting and building relationships with the academic community, we are excited to announce the 33 recipients from North America, Europe and the Middle East. We offer our sincere congratulations to Google’s 2017 Class of Google PhD Fellows.
