Google Summer of Code (g.co/gsoc) is
Google's mentorship program for bringing new contributors into open source
communities. It's happening again for the 21st year in 2025! Over 20,000
developers from 116 countries have participated under the guidance of 19,000+
mentors from 133 countries!
Google Summer of Code is a unique program where students or new contributors
to open source, ages 18 and over, are paired with a mentor to introduce them
to the open source community and provide guidance while they work on a real
world open source project over the summer. Projects cover a wide range of
fields including: Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Cloud, Operating
Systems, Graphics, Medicine, Programming Languages, Robotics, Science,
Security and many more. GSoC Contributors earn a stipend to work on their
small (~90 hour), medium (~175 hour) or large (~350 hour) projects. This is
not an internship but provides an invaluable experience to put your skills to
use on a real world software project and lets you be part of an amazing
community!
GSoC is a highly competitive program, so don't wait until the last minute to
prepare! Interested GSoC Contributors should research organizations that
participated previously and reach out to the organizations that interest them
as early in the year as possible.
The 2025 mentor organizations will be announced on
February 27, 2025. Potential GSoC Contributors can apply
at g.co/gsoc from March 24 to April 8, 2025.
