Georgia Tech and GTRI Offer Military Fellowship

The Military Graduate Research Program (MGRP) provides opportunities for U.S military personnel to conduct Department of Defense (DoD) related part-time research at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) while simultaneously obtaining a graduate degree in a science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) related master’s degree program at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Military personnel perform state-of-the art research as a Military Graduate Research Assistant (MGRA) working along-side full-time GTRI Research Faculty conducting research and solving applied engineering problems on sponsored, real-world, DoD related projects.

Interested in joining our team? Fill out the MGRP Application Form.

GTRI Supports Combat Search and Rescue Missions by Implementing New Imaging Technology

The Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) is working to improve search and rescue capabilities for the Air Force through the government's Multi-Spectral Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (MISeR) program. By attaching an electro-optical infrared sensor system from Northrop Grumman to Airdyne Aerospace’s Special Airborne Mission Installation & Response (SABIR) arm, the Air Force can better perform combat search and rescue (CSAR) missions.
