B*: Build Something
B* is the Brown Startup Fellowship; a 10 week summer fellowship for Brown University computer science students to build and launch software.
Every year, we give teams of student founders $5,000 per person to build software. From June 1 - August 15, B* fellows build, iterate, test, and launch their products.
To get a sense for what kind of products you can build in B*, check out our fellows’ work here.
