Have you ever wondered what the Office of Sponsored Programs does? How to work with Development or Corporate Relations? What is a strategic partnership agreement with an organization, and how you can benefit? How are committees that matter to you formed at the Institute? How is Georgia Tech connected to the University System of Georgia and the legislature, and how this affects us?
If you feel that you understand your area well but would benefit from seeing the bigger picture at the Institute, then please join us for the Demystifying How Georgia Tech Works event series. Organized by the ADVANCE Program, the event series features discussions from faculty and staff on various topics from partnerships to philanthropy. Events are open to all faculty, staff, and students.
