Overview

Georgia Tech prides itself on its technological resources, collaborations, high-quality student body, and its commitment to building an outstanding and diverse community of learning, discovery, and creation. We strongly encourage applicants whose values align with our institutional values, as outlined in our Strategic Plan. These values include academic excellence, diversity of thought and experience, inquiry and innovation, collaboration and community, and ethical behavior and stewardship.

Georgia Tech has policies to promote a healthy work‑life balance and is aware that attracting faculty may require meeting the needs of two careers.

Georgia Tech is a top‑ranked public research university situated in the heart of Atlanta, a diverse and vibrant city with numerous economic and cultural strengths. The Institute serves more than 45,000 students through top‑ranked undergraduate, graduate, and executive programs in engineering, computing, science, business, design, and liberal arts. Georgia Tech's faculty attracted more than $1.4 billion in research awards this past year in fields ranging from biomedical technology to artificial intelligence, energy, sustainability, semiconductors, neuroscience, and national security.

Georgia Tech ranks among the nation's top 20 universities for research and development spending and No. 1 among institutions without a medical school.

Georgia Tech's mission is to develop leaders who advance technology and improve the human condition. The Institute has nine key values that are foundational to everything we do:

• Students are our top priority.
• We strive for excellence.
• We thrive on diversity.
• We celebrate collaboration.
• We champion innovation.
• We safeguard freedom of inquiry and expression.
• We nurture the wellbeing of our community.
• We act ethically.
• We are responsible stewards.

Over the next decade, Georgia Tech will become an example of inclusive innovation, a leading technological research university of unmatched scale, relentlessly committed to serving the public good; breaking new ground in addressing the biggest local, national, and global challenges and opportunities of our time; making technology broadly accessible; and developing exceptional, principled leaders from all backgrounds ready to produce novel ideas and create solutions with real human impact.

The Georgia Tech College of Lifetime Learning is a research‑driven academic college advancing learning across the full arc of life. We integrate academic rigor, workforce‑aligned learning, and flexible pathways to serve learners at every stage, from early exploration through advanced study and professional reinvention.

Founded in 2024, the College is redefining education for a world of constant change. Traditional degree models alone are no longer sufficient for careers, technologies, and communities that evolve continuously. Our work focuses on designing and studying learning systems that adapt over time, supporting individuals as they grow, shift roles, and navigate repeated transitions across their lives.

Through research, teaching, and engagement, we advance the science and practice of learning systems to better understand how people learn most effectively and how education can remain relevant, accessible, and connected to real‑world outcomes. This work informs undergraduate and graduate degrees, non‑credit credentials, and professional learning experiences that emphasize stackable pathways, learner agency, and reduced friction.

As part of a leading public research university, the College positions Georgia Tech as a global leader in lifetime learning. Faculty and staff contribute to a mission‑driven environment focused on real‑world impact, interdisciplinary collaboration, and building a learning society prepared for what comes next.
