Scholarship
Description: Dr. Anita Borg proposed the “50/50 by 2020” initiative, so
that women earning computing degrees would be 50% of the graduates by
year 2020. However, the percentage of Computer Science degrees earned by
women is still far from 50% throughout the world. As part of Google’s
ongoing commitment to furthering Anita’s vision, we are pleased to
announce The Google Anita Borg Memorial Scholarship for Europe, the
Middle East and Africa. Through the scholarship, we aim to encourage
women to excel in computing and technology, and become active role
models and leaders in this field.
