Dear Informatik Students,
As part of Google’s ongoing commitment to encourage women to excel in computing and technology, we are pleased to announce the Google Europe Anita Borg Memorial Scholarship 2007. This is a EUR 5,000 (or equivalent) scholarship for the 2007/2008 academic year and the deadline for submission is Friday, January 12th, 2007. You can find more details at

The Google Anita Borg Memorial Scholarship first launched in the US in 2004. Since then, over thirty scholarships have been awarded. We hope to make the Google Anita Borg Memorial Scholarship in Europe as successful as it has been in the US and would like your help in doing so.
Can you help spread the word by sending out the below email to your BSc, MSc, and PhD students? We have also included an attachment for you to pass to your students. The scholarship is for female students studying Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Informatics or related technical fields.
We created posters to help promote this opportunity and it would be great if we could send some along to you. If this is fine with you, please let me know the best mailing address to use.
Thank you for your help and we hope to see many students participate.
Best regards,
Beate
