This provides an overview for various OLPC internship programs that are available.


Current Opportunities

OLPC is currently recruiting for several Tech internships this season, working on some of the core technical and software needs of the graphical, network, and learning stacks.

OLPC intends to mentor interns through the 2009 Google Summer of Code program. Please see Summer of Code for additional information.

Next, if you are interested in assisting OLPC's support program, please write Adam Holt at holt AT laptop DOT org.

Finally, OLPC interns occasionally travel to deployments, for example, Rwanda, Ethiopia, and Mongolia.

Making New Opportunities

OLPC is working on solutions to some of the world's most challenging problems and it recognizes that people who are motivated to pursue these problems come from many different backgrounds, have different goals, and different needs. If you have recognized an unforeseen problem or have developed a novel approach to a known problem that fits within the bounds of the OLPC mission, consider proposing an internship based on your problem.
