Four students in the Daniel Guggenheim School of Aerospace Engineering and one student in the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering were also chosen for this fellowship (see related article). Established in 2017, the Brooke Owens Fellowship includes a summer internship at an aerospace-related company, two professional mentorships, and lifelong connections with a vast network of other aerospace professionals.
Bishop will be working with Virgin Galactic for her internship this summer. After her first year as a student at Georgia Tech, she interned at Boeing as a systems engineer supporting the Chinook program.
