The Google PhD Fellowship 2026 supports outstanding PhD students around the world. The fellowship is organized by region, and applicants must select the application that matches their region on the official submission page. The program welcomes applications from students in Africa, Australia & New Zealand, East Asia, Europe and the Middle East, India, Latin America, North America, and Southeast Asia.
An important part of the process is that students cannot submit direct applications on their own. For the listed regions, candidates must be nominated by their university, and the application must be submitted by an official representative of the university during the application window. Applicants are advised to contact their department or graduate school for details about the internal nomination process.
The submission platform is hosted on Submittable. It allows users to create a free account, save drafts, and return later to complete the form. Google also notes that Submittable works best on Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.
