WST Learning Community residents are invited to join in a dinner discussion with about fellowships with Dr. Karen Mura. Based in the Office of Undergraduate Education, Dr. Mura shares information about fellowships and advises students on applying to a host of fellowships, including Rhodes, Fulbright, Astronaut, Millenium, Hertz, and many more. 

Karen Mura, PhD, is the Prestigious Fellowships Advisor in the Office of Undergraduate Education. Karen earned her PhD in English Literature at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. Before arriving at Georgia Tech, she was an Associate Professor of English and the Faculty Fellowship Advisor at Susquehanna University in Selinsgrove, Pennsylvania.

Karen is committed to an advising model that is based on a teaching/mentoring relationship with students. She is excited to transition into full-time fellowship advising, where she can utilize her classroom experiences and training as she guides students through the application revision process.
