Second-year grad student Timothy Murphy has received a National Defense Science & Engineering Graduate scholarship that will fund the remainder of his studies at Georgia Tech.
Buzz Killington, built by students in the GT-AE Design Competition Class, beat out 81 other school teams to take home third place in the 2015 AIAA Design Build Fly Competition.
Dimitri Mavris, Marilyn Smith, and Wanda Pierson were the GT-AE employees honored for their 25 years of service during a special celebration, hosted by President Bud Peterson.
Six GT-AE undergraduates were recognized for their academic excellence late last month when Georgia Tech's Women in Engineering group selected them to receive more than $8,000 in scohlarships.
Seven of the 22 scholarships awarded this month by the Vertical Flight Foundation of the American Helicopter Society were made to students enrolled at Georgia Tech's School of Aerospace Engineering.
The final design project for Professor Stephen Ruffin's AE 1601B - Introduction to Aerospace Engineering was to design, build and launch a balsa wood glider from the running deck of the CRC.
