Do you represent a free or open source software organization looking for new contributors? Do you love the challenge and reward of mentoring new developers in your community? Apply to be a mentoring organization in the Google Summer of Code program! The organization application period is now open.
Now in its 11th year, Google Summer of Code is a program designed to pair university students from around the world with mentors at open source projects in such varied fields as operating systems, language translations, content management systems, games, and scientific software. Since 2005, over 8,500 students from more than 100 countries have completed the Google Summer of Code program with the support of over 480 mentoring organizations. Students gain exposure to real-world software development while earning a stipend for their work and an opportunity to explore areas related to their academic pursuits during their school break. In return, mentoring organizations have the opportunity to identify and attract new developers to their projects as these students often continue their work with the organizations after Google Summer of Code concludes.
The deadline for applying to be a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code is Friday, February 20 at 19:00 UTC (11am PST). The list of accepted organizations will be posted on the Google Summer of Code site on Monday, March 2nd. Students will then have two weeks to reach out to the accepted organizations to discuss their project ideas before we begin accepting student applications on March 16th.
Please visit our Frequently Asked Questions page for more details on the program. For more information you can check out the Mentor Manual, timeline and join the discussion group. You can also check out the Melange Manual for more information on using the website. Good luck to all of our mentoring organization applicants!
