Meet the Women Faculty of ECE

In 1988, the School of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology hired Bonnie Ferri as its first female faculty member. Since that time, the School has changed its name to the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), and it has changed in many other ways over the years. Among those changes are that it now has 22 women research and academic faculty in its ranks.
