Thought you might like to know, especially for college computer
science majors like Joseph Lee or any others... although it's a
little OT.

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight. The
real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that
exists. If a blind person has the proper training and
opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical
nuisance." -- Kenneth Jernigan (President of the National
Federation of the Blind, 1968-1986.)

impaired children in MD say "I can!"

Engineering Practicum
Google aspires to be an organization that reflects the globally
diverse audience that our search engine and tools serve. We
believe that in addition to hiring the best talent, a diversity
of perspectives, ideas and cultures leads to the creation of
better products and services. This diversity of our employees
and partners serves as the foundation for us to better serve our
diverse customers and stakeholders all over the world.
Google is also invested in increasing the pipeline of future
computer scientists and software developers, particularly those
who are historically underrepresented in the field. Many
aspiring computer scientists could benefit from a program that
bridges the gap between academic study and a professional
internship. Google wants to inspire these students to continue
in the field with such a program.
With this in mind, Google announces the fourth year of the
Engineering Practicum internship program (formerly known as BOLD
Practicum) for Summer 2012. Current sophomores majoring, or
intending to major, in Computer Science or Electrical and
Computer Engineering will be selected to participate in the
Practicum. This program includes three main components: a
software project, skills-based training, and professional
development. We will have Engineering Practicum cohorts in four
offices this year: Boston, MA; Mountain View, CA; New York, NY,
and Kirkland (Seattle), WA.
We invite you to join us for the 2012 Engineering Practicum
program!
This summer internship program includes:
Software Project: A 10-week development project that you will
work on in a team of Googlers and other Engineering Practicum
interns.
Skills-Based Training: Enhance your coding skills; get exposed to
new tools and programming languages.
Professional Development: Attend weekly technical talks by senior
Googlers. Additionally, learn how to enhance your resume, tackle
technical interviews, and improve your presentation skills.
Mentorship: Be matched with a Google engineer, other than your
manager, to guide you through your summer experience.
Fun: Social activities, community building and networking. Build
a relationship with your peers.
Exposure: A unique glimpse into applying your computer science
studies in a professional environment.
Application Process
The application process will include the standard online Student
Application, as well as an essay submission. To view the
application process and internship requirements, visit the
application page.
