Georgia Tech's co-op program—in which students alternate between academic semesters and full-time paid engineering positions with leading employers—is one of the most respected professional development pathways in American engineering education, and participants graduate with both a prestigious degree and extensive work experience. The Institute's location in Atlanta, one of the fastest-growing technology and business hubs in the American South, provides exceptional access to internships and careers in industries ranging from aerospace and manufacturing to financial technology and healthcare information systems. International students make up a significant portion of Georgia Tech's student body, and the Institute's strong connections to global technology companies make it particularly valuable for students planning international careers.
