Engineering Residency Program Southern Africa Jan-May 2022
Software Engineering Internship Program across Southern Africa
Expanding from our successful pilot launch in 2021 we’re expanding enrollment for candidates from more campuses across Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia and Eswatini.
We continue to work with our partner, Botho University as well as other leading universities in the region. Our goal remains the same to bring real-world software engineering experience to those who most need it in Southern Africa.
Please consider supporting the next cohort by donating.
Engineering Residency Internship Program Gaborone/Maseru Jul-Nov 2021
Software Engineering Internship Program for Botho University Computer Science Students
For our partner, Botho University, providing practical experience through their internship program is a key component in the Computer Science degree program. One of the lesser known effects of the COVID-19 pandemic has been that opportunities for university students to find viable internships have been drastically reduced due to pandemic lockdowns and lack of remote work support at corporate partners. Along with the challenges for students to attend classes through the pandemic, they now find that they are unable to find corporate internship opportunities in Gaborone and elsewhere in Southern Africa.
This is particularly interesting from the student perspective as we can provide the students with experience working in a software start-up environment where they have the opportunity to develop real-world software.
