Once again, 52°North has been chosen to be a mentoring organization for the Google Summer of Code 2015 (GSoC)!  The Google Summer of Code is a global program that offers students stipends to write code for open source projects. Stipend recipients receive $ 5.500,- for 3 months of  successful software development for 52°North. A mentor from a 52°North partner organization supervises the student during this period.

As such, we now look for students who are interested in writing code for various 52°North projects. If you are interested in writing code for software developed by the 52°North communities, we have a number of interesing project ideas. Please have a look at https://wiki.52north.org/bin/view/Projects/GSoC2015.

Student Application opens on March 16, 2015 at 19:00 UTC – but the discussion can start right now!

This summer, flip bits not burgers with 52°North!
