Previous Anita Borg Scholars and Finalists
The Google Anita Borg Scholarship was first launched in 2004 when a group of Googlers decided to establish a program that would honor the work of their friend and colleague Dr. Anita Borg. Since launching in 2004 in the United States, the program has expanded to Canada, Australia and New Zealand, Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.
Google is proud to recognize the alumnae of the Anita Borg Memorial Scholarship program. We celebrate their accomplishments and contributions to the technology field.
