Despite the fact that women famously played a pioneering role in the early decades of programming and technology, the participation of women engineers in the technology sector globally still stands at just 26% (as per the Bureau of Labor Statistics).
The primary objective of this program is to address this gender imbalance in technology by grooming promising talent among women engineering students to advance and contribute to the field. Prioritising inclusion, the program is designed to support talented women engineering students (currently in the first year) from across India and all strata of the society, including those from underprivileged and disadvantaged backgrounds.
Designed by TalentSprint and supported by Google, this experiential program aims to nurture 600 students over 3 years. 100 students are undergoing the program in the 2019 cohort. Well before the completion of the program, Women Techmakers Engineering Fellows Program students received 104 internships and full time offers from 54 companies, at compensation levels 86% above the market average. Applications are invited for the 2020 cohort of 120 students.
The program is a combination of boot camps, live online classes, ongoing mentorship, certification and team-based projects to enhance problem-solving and computational thinking. It also provides exemplary participants with a chance to get career opportunities at high end product companies including Google.

Both TalentSprint and Google believe that diversity is important to innovation, creativity, and problem-solving. However, in the last few decades, we have witnessed a decline in the number of women in the software industry. To address this gender imbalance in the tech industry, TalentSprint, supported by Google, rolled out an experiential Women Techmakers Engineering Fellows Program to groom promising women students to rapidly advance and contribute to the evolving tech industry.
The Program focuses on providing an opportunity for potential women engineers across India. This 2-year Program will enable select women students to build global competitive abilities. Supported by Google, the Program provides participants with 100% fee sponsorship and Rs. 200,000 cash scholarship.
The objective of Women Techmakers Engineering Fellows Program is to nurture capable women students into globally competitive women engineers irrespective of their socio-economic profile. Hence the program is offered by providing full fee sponsorship as well as cash scholarship to enable candidates to benefit from the Program.
