The application window is open for the Google Summer of Code 2024 Mentor Organization. The last date to apply is Feb 6, 2024.
Google Summer of Code is a global, online program focused on bringing new contributors into open-source software development. GSoC Contributors work with an open-source organization on a 12+ week programming project under the guidance of mentors.
Google welcomes all types of organizations and is eager to involve first-time mentor organisations in GSoC. We encourage new organizations to get a referral from experienced organizations that think they would be a good fit to participate in GSoC.
The open-source projects that participate in GSoC as mentor organizations span many fields including those doing interesting work in AI/ML, security, cloud, development tools, science, medicine, data, media, and more! Projects can range from being relatively new (about 2 years old) to well-established projects that started over 20 years ago. They welcome open-source projects big, small, and everything in between.
This year we are looking to bring more open-source projects in the AI/ML field into GSoC 2024. If your project is in the artificial intelligence or machine learning fields please chat with your community and see if you would be interested in applying to GSoC 2024.
One thing to remember is that open-source projects wishing to apply need to have a solid community; GSoC aims to bring new contributors into established and welcoming communities. While you don’t have to have 50+ community members, the project also can’t have as few as three people.
Final date for mentors to submit evaluations for GSoC contributor projects with extended deadlines
You can apply to be a mentor organization for GSoC starting today on the program site. The deadline to apply is February 6, 2024, at 18:00 UTC. They will publicly announce the organizations chosen for GSoC 2024 on February 21st.
The last date for the application is Feb 6, 2024.
