World-class experts solving the world's toughest problems
The Georgia Tech Research Institute is a highly-regarded applied research and development organization with over 1200 employees in six states and the Republic of Ireland. Each day, GTRI’s science and engineering expertise is used to solve some of the toughest problems facing government and industry across the nation and around the globe. GTRI redefines innovation by tackling customers’ most complex challenges with the right mix of expertise, creativity and practicality. Our expert scientists and engineers transform ideas into workable solutions and then put those solutions into action—on-time and on budget. We employ over 200 students each year who bring tremendous energy, curiosity, and perspective to every project.
We have been a trusted government and industry partner since 1934. As a non-profit research institute, we team with our customers and attack their problems with passion and objectivity.
There are many opportunities for direct investment in strategic research areas through early-stage venture funds, as well as opportunities to support students' hands-on experiences and to mentor the next generation of researchers who see no limits, only opportunities. Private support is needed to inspire and motivate the next generation of problem solvers and to empower experts to tackle the complex technical challenges we face every day.
