"I was employed by Sandia National Laboratories throughout my doctoral program, and they sponsored my studies. I am returning to full-time employment at Sandia, but now in a new role enabled by my degree. I am the new R&D manager of a team of a dozen computer and data scientists who are working on enabling detection of nuclear proliferation program through the application of advanced data analytics. I am so excited to embark on this new adventure, and would not have been able to do so without the experience and skills I gained at Georgia Tech."

- Zoe N. Gastelum, Ph.D., Public Policy

“My education at the Ivan Allen College has significantly improved my ability to think more critically about cybersecurity, from technical controls to policy-level considerations. Although the focus of my education was on the policy and governance side of cybersecurity, I was able to expand my knowledge of the technical aspects including coding and hacking, in which I had very little knowledge prior to the start of the program. I was able to learn how and why cyber criminals do what they do to better position myself to protect organizations from cyberattacks and assist them in recovery efforts.”

-Madison Makenzie Messer, MS Cybersecurity (Policy Track)
