The Office of Undergraduate Education recently celebrated some Fall 2022 graduates, with an article highlighting students who have participated in or worked for one or more OUE programs during their time at Tech.  SLS is especially proud to highlight Min Sol Lee (B.S., ISyE), who recently worked for us as a Public Interest Technology Fellow. 

Min Sol stated about her time at SLS, "I learned a lot through SLS. The courses I took through SLS, Summer Internship, and the Public Interest Technology (PIT) work I did with fellow students essentially helped me be a better person by breaking the implicit bias that still existed regardless of how open-minded I tried to be and taught me to be in many ways.
 
Over the summer, I worked with Grove Park Foundation (GPF), a non-profit organization located in the Grove Park neighborhood in Atlanta, with a mission of improving the quality of life of the residents. It was impressive from the first day. When went into the office, there was already a meeting going on. Experienced experts from GPF (finance, housing, etc.), people from the City of Atlanta, and local business owners/residents came to a table to discuss and plan for the change in the neighborhood.
 
I hope GT students do not miss out on a great opportunity like this. Living in a dynamic city with a rich history filled with diversity, I urge my beloved fellow GT colleagues to go out and get a hands-on experience as I had. Witnessing the complicated challenges we face and how resilient our communities are to solve these problems regardless would be an incomparable experience that will get them ready to go out to the world as proud engineers who know how to appreciate every aspect of our lives. Meeting and working with the expertise of the collective minds with the right knowledge and deep understanding of our communities, will aspire to do their best in whatever they do. "
