Student Highlights
OPPORTUNITY RESEARCH SCHOLARS’ STUDENTS SWEEP SRC’S TECHCON
ECE’s Opportunity Research Scholars Program (ORS), an undergraduate research experience, had students attend the Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) conference, TECHCON 2023, in Austin, Texas in October 2023.
The event provided educational opportunities through coursework, research competitions, and direct industry interaction. ECE students excelled, winning the top three undergraduate awards: Hanna Khor (1st Place), Janet Tocho (2nd Place), and Adrian Candocia (3rd Place).
PREM PART OF INVENTURE PRIZE WINNING TEAM
Rhea Prem and the Lilypad Health team won this year’s InVenture Prize, an interdisciplinary innovation competition designed for undergraduate students and recent graduates. The team’s groundbreaking invention, an at-home, non-invasive menstrual blood screening tool, aims to revolutionize women’s health by making crucial tests more accessible. Prem, alongside teammates Netra Gandhi and Ethan Damiani, developed the innovative solution to address gaps in preventive health care. Their work not only earned them the $20,000 prize but also a spot in Georgia Tech’s CREATE-X Startup Launch program.
WOLFE WINS HELEN GRENGA AWARD FOR FOSTERING INCLUSIVITY IN ENGINEERING
Jennifer Wolfe was honored with the 2024 Helen Grenga Outstanding Woman Engineer Award. The award, which is named after Georgia Tech’s first full-tenured female engineering professor, is given annually to one female- identifying student who excels in their academic pursuits and also works to create a more inclusive and diverse engineering community.
Wolfe was recognized for her passionate efforts in encouraging women to pursue engineering degrees and careers. She’s heavily involved in all three Georgia Tech women in engineering organizations.
