Google Will Be On Campus!

Interested in using open source projects to contribute to the software engineering community while also bolstering your resume? This workshop will review the basics of open source methodology and provide actionable steps for joining many kinds of open source projects. Google is one of the tech industry's biggest champions of decentralized open source software development, with examples such as Android, Chrome, and TensorFlow (among others). 

Interested in working at Google but don't have a CS degree (or don't plan on getting one)? Come hear about all of the cool opportunities Google has for engineering majors outside of software engineering + why having a foundation in CS can be valuable in any industry. We'll discuss both full-time and internship roles in fields such as IT, hardware engineering, and others.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion will always be priorities at Google as we strive to build technology for everyone. Belonging broadens our understanding of these measures, by providing a universal and human “why,” and an invitation to go one step further. Not only are we committed to building equity where the greatest barriers exist, belonging also asks us to build bridges that connect everyone and envision a future where we all have what we need to thrive.
