Georgia Tech Is Shaping the Future of Flight
Aerospace is Georgia’s No. 1 export — an economic engine generating more than $12 billion annually. Georgia Tech is living proof that research universities don’t just contribute to that ecosystem. They power it.
Working alongside industry partners and government agencies, our faculty and students are pioneering safer, faster, more sustainable ways to move people and goods around the world. From next-generation propulsion to autonomous systems and advanced space technologies, Georgia Tech is driving workforce development, building opportunity, and increasing the state’s global competitiveness.
Georgia Tech is living proof that breakthrough ideas can transform industries.
In our combustion labs, students and faculty are partnering with Boom Supersonic to help design and test engines that could one day make affordable, sustainable supersonic travel possible.
This is hands-on research with real-world stakes, giving students access to industry-defining projects while helping our state remain at the forefront of global aerospace innovation.
