BOLD Immersion

The Building Opportunities for Leadership and Development (BOLD) Immersion program provides students the opportunity to immerse themselves in a culture where great minds, cutting-edge technology, and smart business intersect to make a difference — each and every day.

Selected students will participate in a virtual program in the summer of 2023. The program will be a mixture of self-learning and weekly group sessions with Google mentors. The BOLD Immersion program provides:

• A rare glimpse into the business side of the technology industry
• A chance to grow your peer network
• Exposure and insight into Google’s internship program and business career opportunities

The BOLD Immersion program takes place in multiple regions around the world, is open to higher education students, and is committed to addressing diversity, equity, and inclusion in our company, and the technology industry. Students that identify with a group historically excluded from the technology industry are encouraged to apply.
