The program focuses on open-ended and exploratory research projects that may not have a clear deliverable. The program's objective is to foster academic collaborations and contribute to Google's research efforts. Google Research aims to build the next generation of intelligent systems for its products, utilizing advanced computer science techniques. The team collaborates with other Google teams to adapt projects and focus areas to meet the demands of the fast-paced business environment. As a Student Researcher, you will be involved in research to develop solutions for real-world, large-scale problems.

About the job

The Student Researcher Program’s primary objective is to foster academic collaborations with students through research at Google. Join us for a paid Student Researcher position that offers the opportunity to work directly with Google research scientists and developers on cutting-edge research projects.

The Student Researcher Program offers more opportunities for research students to work on critical research projects at Google in a less structured way. The program allows for opportunities beyond the limitations of our traditional internship program on aspects such as duration, time commitment, and working location (with options for on-site or remote). The topics student researchers work on tend to be open-ended and exploratory, and don't always have a clear deliverable like a traditional internship would.

Google Research is building the next generation of intelligent systems for all Google products. To achieve this, we’re working on projects that utilize the latest computer science techniques developed by skilled software developers and research scientists. Google Research teams collaborate closely with other teams across Google, maintaining the flexibility and versatility required to adapt new projects and foci that meet the demands of the world's fast-paced business needs.
