For current Undergraduate/Masters students and Professionals

  2. Student applicants must be full-time Undergraduate or Masters students enrolled at an African university. Professionals must be employed/affiliated with an organization registered in Africa.
  3. The Google Fellowship award shall be contingent on the awardee registering for the full-time PhD program at an African university, in Computer Science or related areas, within the calendar year 2019, or the award shall be forfeited.

How are Google PhD Fellowships given?

Any monetary awards will be paid directly to the Fellow’s university for distribution. No overhead should be assessed against them.

After Google PhD Fellowship recipients are notified, the Fellowship is effective starting the following school year.

Fellowship applications are received November-February each year. Awardees are notified by April and publicly announced in May.
