The Google Student Researcher Program is designed to build academic partnerships with students by engaging them in hands-on research projects at Google. This paid opportunity allows participants to collaborate directly with Google’s research scientists and engineers on innovative and exploratory research.
Program Overview
The Student Researcher Program is distinct from traditional internships, offering a flexible structure that accommodates varying durations, time commitments, and working locations, including on-site or remote options. Projects in this program often focus on open-ended and exploratory research rather than fixed deliverables typical of standard internships.
This program is tailored for students enrolled full-time in degree programs within the EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) region who intend to resume their studies after the program ends. Participants must reside in one of the designated countries for the program’s duration.
