To be eligible for a scholarship to attend an international conference, applicants must:

  • Be a full-time student enrolled with a recognized university in Africa who is in need of conference travel funds.
  • Have a paper accepted at a top-tier computer science conference. We prefer to support conferences in research areas where Google has a strong interest. Please visit research.google.com for a list of areas.
  • Be the sole or joint first author of the accepted paper.
  • Google employees are not eligible to apply for Google scholarships. Persons who are (1) residents of embargoed countries, (2) ordinarily resident in embargoed countries, or (3) otherwise prohibited by applicable export controls and sanctions programs may not apply for this scholarship.

Application Date and Process

Please submit this form by the deadline for the conference that you wish to attend. **Given the shift to virtual mode for conferences, they are currently accepting applications to cover conference fees.

Claim process

They review applications on a rolling basis, all year round, therefore eligible applicants will get our reply around four weeks of applying. Please apply for the grant well in advance of the Conference start date, as the payment completion timeline can be between 5-8 weeks. Once approved for a travel grant, the funds will be paid to the applicant’s university and the student may claim expenses using regular university procedures.
