Software Student Training in Engineering Program (STEP) Intern, 2025

Google's Software Student Training in Engineering Program (STEP) is a comprehensive internship program designed specifically for second-year university students, with a focus on increasing representation of historically underrepresented groups in technology. The program offers a unique blend of practical experience and professional development through three main components: a hands-on software project, skills-based training, and professional development opportunities.

Interns will work alongside Googlers and fellow STEP interns on real development projects, enhancing their coding skills while gaining exposure to various tools and programming languages. The program includes valuable learning opportunities through technical talks by executive Googlers, one-on-one mentorship with Google Engineers, and engaging social activities for community building and networking.

Google, being fundamentally an engineering company, offers interns the chance to work on projects that impact billions of users worldwide. From Google Ads to Chrome, Android to YouTube, and Social to Local, interns will be part of a team that's pushing the boundaries of technological innovation. The program runs for 10-12 weeks during Summer 2025, providing a perfect bridge between academic studies and professional experience.

The program is particularly focused on supporting underrepresented students in computer science and related fields, offering them a unique opportunity to develop their skills in a supportive and innovative environment. Participants will gain invaluable industry experience while contributing to projects that have real-world impact, all while being part of Google's inclusive and diverse culture that values equal opportunity and representation.
