    The Girls Who Code Summer Immersion Program is a 7-week summer program designed to educate, inspire, and equip high school women with the skills and resources to pursue academics and careers in the technology and engineering sectors. The Girls Who Code model presents an innovative approach to computer science education, pairing 250+ hours of intensive instruction with high-touch mentorship and exposure led by the industry's top female engineers and entrepreneurs.

    In its signature 7-week program, Girls Who Code embeds 20 rising high school juniors and seniors inside a top tech company or university setting (Google, Twitter, Facebook, Stanford, etc.) from 9-5pm each day. Here, young women get hands-on experience in computing concepts, programming fundamentals, mobile phone development, robotics, web development and design, and algorithms. Project-based curricular modules allow participants to build products and develop innovative solutions designed to inspire an interest in and encourage their pursuit of computer science.

    We're looking for enthusiastic computer science instructors for the 2015 Summer Immersion Program in each of the following cities: New York City, San Francisco Bay Area, Boston, Washington DC, Chicago, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Miami.
