Hi Everyone,

A quick reminder that the deadline for the H-FOSS summer Institute is
tomorrow! 

 

If you applied to the program previously please note that you have to
send in new application with all the required information to be
considered for this summer's program.  If you participated last summer,
you still have to re-apply, however we are waiving the requirement for a
recommendation letter.

The Humanitarian FOSS (H-FOSS) Project is pleased to announce the
availability of Ten (10) undergraduate internships for the 2009 H-FOSS
Summer Institute. The summer interns will be part of a development team
to Build free and Open Source Software for use by humanitarian
organizations.

The H-FOSS Institute will be held at Trinity College in Hartford, CT.
The 10-week (May 18th to July 24th) Institute will engage students in a
number of local and international open source projects. The internships
come with a $4000 stipend and include on-campus housing for the
duration. Institute participants will work with advisers from the open
source community, mentors from Accenture Corporation along side faculty
supervisors on projects ranging from Medial Records, Disaster
Management, Early Disease detection, literacy application management
systems to addressing accessibility issues. 

We seek students with a strong interest in helping build software that
benefits the community while at the same time furthering their own
computing skills. Although there is no minimum requirement for an
internship, an introductory course in computer science plus a working
knowledge of some programming language is preferred.

The application deadline is March 1st, 2009. Application review will
begin on March 2nd and will continue until all placements are filled.
