Academic Support
Defining Success
Every semester, you make decisions that influence your future. You choose classes that prepare you for the technical knowledge needed for your career. You perform research, design programs, and participate in group projects. As you define and redefine your success each semester, it's important to assess what is working and determine any adjustments that need to be made.
If at any point you find you need a little extra assistance, we have a team of faculty, staff, and peers ready to help you.

Preparing Tomorrow's Leaders
From providing access to clean water to securing the realm of cyberspace, the challenges facing our modern societies are immediate and complex.
Grand Challenge Scholars
The Grand Challenge Scholars (GCS) program helps students to engage in real-world applications of their education through experiences such as research, international travel, seminar talks, and community outreach. The program’s goal is to prepare tomorrow’s engineering leaders to solve the grand challenges facing society during the next century.
Samantha Kodikara completed the 5 competencies through research, adopting a political science minor, becoming involved in Dixon GPS, studying abroad, and completing service projects.
“GCS helped me attend BMES 2019 where I was able to present research from my REU at Georgia Tech. The biggest challenge I have faced in college was deciding between a career in research and medicine. I helped come to this decision after completing an REU at Georgia Tech and realizing that I wanted a more patient-centered career.”
