Georgia Tech Strategic Energy Institute

It's hard to believe that it has been 20 years since the founding of SEI in 2004! One of the first IRI's at Georgia Tech, SEI has successfully served the Georgia Institute of Technology energy community, helping launch Georgia Tech to the number one position in Energy and Fuels Research among public universities by the USNWR rankings. We invite you to celebrate this milestone with us on October 4th at 2pm, at the Kendeda Building on the Georgia Tech campus. Registration is required and space is limited so be sure to register to secure your spot. The QR code on the flyer will take you to the registration form.
