It was such a pleasure to host our alumnus, Marcus Smith, the current Chief DEIA officer at the AFRL, for the day of workshops as part of our Homecoming Seminar series organized by Dr. Tsukruk.

Thank you Marcus for the workshops and meetings with students, staff & faculty — representatives from our LBQT+, black American, and Latino community.

Dr. Tsukruk runs our GT Homecoming seminar, bringing back previous students to share their advice and input! Check out Dr. LeMieux’s visit!

Kat successfully defended her Ph. D dissertation! Congrats!

Congratulations to Dr. Hansol Lee, Dr. Michelle Krecker, and Dr. Andrew Erwin for their successful PhD thesis defenses during 2021!
