Short answer: Google posted its Summer 2027 Software Engineering Intern (BS) role for early consideration from July 21 to 24, 2026, and said applications would reopen in the fall. On November 9, 2026, Google's US careers site listed 13 internship roles for 2027; the BS software engineering internship was not among them.

What was open on November 9, 2026

  • Forward Deployed Engineering Intern, BS/MS, Summer 2027 (Useno first listed it on October 12, 2026).
  • Software Engineering Intern, PhD, Summer 2027.
  • Student Researcher and other specialist roles.

How Google's windows work

Google's early posting said its window could close sooner if projects filled. Postings open and close in short bursts, so the most reliable approach is to check Google's internship search every week from late summer, and to have your resume ready before it opens.

First- and second-years

Google's STEP internship has been its program for first- and second-year students. On November 9, 2026, Google's US search showed no STEP posting for 2027. Watch the careers site and look at other programs for first-years and sophomores.

Missed the window?

Most software internships are not at Google. Plenty of companies, from startups to banks, hire software interns through the spring. See when Summer 2027 software engineering internships open.

Last year, for comparison

In the SimplifyJobs public internship list, Google's first Summer 2026 role appeared on August 25, 2025, and its first Summer 2027 role on July 20, 2026. The list leans toward software, data and finance roles, so read these as the earliest postings it caught, not official opening dates.
