Each recipient will have the opportunity not only to attend the Celebration, but to spend valuable days before the conference with Facebook engineers learning, collaborating, and preparing for the conference. The deadline is on 28 June 2019.
The scholarship includes paid registration for the Grace Hopper Celebration, covered travel and lodging, additional meal stipend, and an access to tech talks, mentoring and networking events.
