Google Summer of Code 2009

Google Summer of Code is open once again to all Malaysian university students!

Google today announced the opening of the application period for university students who wish to participate in the Google Summer of Code™ 2009 program. Google is working with 150 mentoring organizations and will fund approximately 1,000 student projects in 2009, the fifth year of this program.

Student applications will be accepted from now until April 3, 2009 . Students who wish to join the Google Summer of Code (GSoC) should visit http://code.google.com/soc/ for more information. Program updates can also be viewed on the Google Open Source Blog at http://google-opensource.blogspot.com or http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2009/03/students-apply-now-for-google-summer-of.html

"Last year, three students in Malaysia successfully completed their open source projects and collaborated with mentors in different countries around the world. We hope to get even more university students from Malaysia into the Google Summer of Code community this year," said Leslie Hawthorn, Google Open Source Team and GSoC program manager.
