Summer of Code 2025

Write Code. Save Lives.

OpenMRS is hoping to be a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code™ 2025! Since 2007, we've enjoyed participating in this great program and we're extremely excited about the projects and mentorship opportunities available this year. Coding for OpenMRS is a great way to practice your coding skills and, at the same time, help benefit people in developing countries who are on the front lines of public health challenges.

If you are new to OpenMRS, we recommend starting with our Guide to the New & Curious. It will introduce you to our community, the tools and spaces we use, and help you get to know the different squads and teams working on various community projects. For a more detailed history of who we are and what we do, please see here.
