Google - CS4HS - Computer Science for High School, Last Date to Apply 3rd March 2012

CS4HS (Computer Science for High School)

CS4HS (Computer Science for High School) is an initiative sponsored by Google to promote Computer Science and Computational Thinking in high school and middle school curriculum. With a grant from Google's Education Group, universities develop 2-3 day workshops for local high school and middle school CS teachers. These workshops incorporate informational talks by industry leaders, and discussions on new and emerging CS curricula at the high school and middle school level. On this site, you'll find information on how to apply for a CS4HS grant, information for workshop attendees and partners, and other helpful resources.

Google offer CS4HS grants in the US, Canada, Europe, Middle East and Africa.

The 2012 application process is now open. Please submit your application by March 3, 2012 to be considered for a CS4HS 2012 grant.

The need for more CS professionals is increasing faster than universities are able to graduate CS students, and CS4HS hopes to address this gap with our “train the trainer” approach. We provide the universities with the support they need, so they can provide local teachers with the tools they need, so that those teachers can teach students the skills they will need.
