Major research universities frequently provide visionary insight into the development and application of technologies. With research expenditures of more than $650 million in 2011, Georgia Tech ranks among the top 10 in the U.S. in research expenditures among universities without a medical school. Georgia Tech’s Strategic Energy Institute is a campus-wide program focused on interdisciplinary research in energy and related technologies.

On January 30, sign up for an insightful discussion with university innovators on the state of research in carbon capture, photovoltaic and smart grid technologies.
