The Georgia Tech Alumni Association has announced its 2022 class of 40 Under 40. The group showcases how Tech graduates impact every industry worldwide and work to improve the way we live through their diligence and expertise from an early age.
A recent effort involving the University System of Georgia (USG) partnering with the U.S. Census Bureau on a project called Post-Secondary Employment Outcomes provides national employment outcomes for USG graduates. The data shows that Georgia Tech stands out as an advantageous financial decision.
Global Engagement Pivots as the World Changes
The last two years have been filled with international travel restrictions affecting where and how students could access international study opportunities. The Office of International Education has adjusted by finding ways to meet student demand for global engagement.
Mitigating the Maritime Impact of Offshore Wind Turbines
By the end of this decade, offshore wind turbine generators could provide enough energy to power 10 million homes in the United States. A recent study led by Georgia Tech documented the effects of wind turbines in creating potential confusion among ship operators using marine vessel radar as a critical navigation tool.
Team EPICS Wins Student Innovation Competition
A group of former teaching assistants working to increase access for women in mechanical engineering won the College of Engineering’s 2022 Student Innovation Competition. Their entry focused on the College’s makerspaces.
Science Center's Materials Exhibit Gets 'Superhuman' Assistance from Georgia Tech
A new exhibit about “Superhero Materials” at Cartersville’s Tellus Science Museum received assistance from Georgia Tech’s College of Engineering. Mark Losego, associate professor in the School of Materials Science and Engineering, worked with museum staff to frame the exhibit's technical content and design.
Aiming to Stop Chemo Neuro Damage Before it Starts
Powerful, toxic cancer drugs save lives, but kill neurons. It’s the price of survival. But what if you could stop the damage before it begins? That's the question Georgia Tech researchers are asking, with support from the National Institutes of Health.
Consciously Improving NASA Missions and Operations
Realizing the benefits of improving cognitive skills, especially in perilous, deep space missions such as traveling to Mars, NASA has called on Georgia Tech researchers to develop cognition aids to help astronauts with critical tasks.
