52°North is pleased to announce that we will mentor three students for Google Summer of Code 2021! The Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is a global program that offers students stipends to write code for Open Source projects. During their break from university, the students work on a programming project for 10 weeks (175 hours). This year, 199 mentoring organizations reviewed 6,991 applications—submitted by 4,795 students from 103 countries— and selected 1,292students from 69 countries.

52°North welcomes three students, who will tackle different aspects of our enviroCar developments.

• Bug Fixing and Improving User Interface in enviroCar Android (Sai karthikeya)
• enviroCar Platform Independent App (D Ajay Kumar)
• Groundwork for Platform-Independent App (Khyati Saini)

After a period of community bonding, in which the students get to know their mentors and the organization better, coding begins. Stay tuned for the student blogs!
