Undergraduate / A woman interested in pursuing a career in biomedical engineering [3]
Beyond rankings, location, and athletics, why are you interested in attending Georgia Tech?
Background info: I'm an Asian female from Atlanta, GA, applying to GA Tech for the next fall semester. I'm not sure if it's appropriate to write about gender in my college application, so please help! I am also interested in undergraduate research opportunities, but it didn't sound very interesting to write about. Thanks in advance!
As a woman interested in pursuing a career in biomedical engineering, it is intimidating to dive head first into a male dominated industry. At other universities, they only advocate for women to join the field, but they do not provide the student with support throughout their tenure at the university. This is where Georgia Tech differs from all of my other university choices. The environment at Georgia Tech wholly encourages women to follow through with their interests in the STEM field with programs like the "Women in Engineering" program which allows female engineers the opportunity to empower other young women to follow their passions in engineering. The members also serve as a support group for one another which fortifies the confidence of female students in a field where we are often looked down upon.
