Diversity Scholarship

We are committed to increasing diversity at GTAC, and we believe the best way to do that is by
making sure we have a diverse set of applicants to speak and attend. As part of that commitment,
we are excited to announce that we will be offering travel scholarships this year. Travel scholarships
will be available for selected applicants from traditionally underrepresented groups in technology.
To be eligible for a grant to attend GTAC, applicants must:
Be 18 years of age or older.
Be from a traditionally underrepresented group in technology.
Work or study in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a technical field related to software testing.
Be able to attend core dates of GTAC, November 15th - 16th 2016 in Sunnyvale, CA.
To Apply:
Application for diversity scholarship is now CLOSED.
What the Scholarship Covers:
Google will pay for standard coach class airfare for selected scholarship recipients to San Francisco
or San Jose, and 3 nights of accommodations in a hotel near the Sunnyvale campus. Breakfast and lunch will be provided
for GTAC attendees and speakers on both days of the conference. We will also provide a $50.00 gift card for
other incidentals such as airport transportation or meals. You will need to provide your own credit
card to cover any hotel incidentals.
Google is dedicated to providing a harassment-free and inclusive conference experience for everyone. Our anti-harassment policy can be found
here.
