Google… Did I just read Google?
Yes, it’s Google and the best part is Google Student Ambassador program is welcome to all university student especially you
Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information
and make it universally accessible and useful.Google Inc.
The Google Student Ambassador (GSA) Program is an opportunity for students to act as liaisons between Google and their universities. As ambassadors, you will
- Learn about innovative Google products and programs
- Plan and host fun events on campus
- Act as a campus contact for Google teams
- Help Google better understand each university’s culture
Ambassadors are thrilled by new technology, enthusiastic about Google, and involved in their school communities. All majors from Computer Science, to Anthropology, from Business to Zoology are welcome
Google Ambassadors have the opportunity to enhance their professional development, leadership, and communication skills, and access to a unique network of Google Ambassadors across the globe (more than 1000++ students). All GSAs will receive cool Google SWAG (Stuffs All You Get)
Plus, we are equipped with Gmail bag (some got Google jacket) *wink*
GSA program consists of students who passion for technology and innovation. The program is one school year in length. Last year Google selected 120 GSAs who will represent us in 42 campuses across South East Asia from more than 600 applications. It was an awesomely fun process for us, having to interact with so many passionate and enthusiastic students!
To kick off GSA program, last year Google invited all ambassadors to attend the Ambassador Summit at Google Singapore on 10 – 12 July 2012. Here, the ambassadors met Googlers, interact with ambassadors from other schools across South East Asia and of course, learned about Google products!
