Google Spreads Its Cloud Into Universities

Search giant offers free cloud credits to university students.

Google is trying to spread its cloud into universities.

The search giant said on Tuesday that it would give university students free access to some of the software tools available on its cloud computing service.

For students to receive access to the cloud services, university computer science faculty and those teaching related courses can apply online. Currently, only U.S.-based faculty members can apply, but Google said people in other countries should soon be able to qualify too.
