The Graduate Student Advisory Council (GSAC) facilitates community building and serves as a liaison between the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering and its graduate students. Members of the council represent each of the school’s six academic and research groups and both Ph.D. and master’s students.

The council hosts events that provide academic and social support, enhancing the graduate student experience and to bring CEE graduate students together. Additionally, the council members serve as ambassadors to the School’s External Advisory Board, alumni, supporters, and prospective students.

Council members are available to answer questions, offer insight and advice, and field suggestions. Feel free to contact a member – just click on their photo to send an email – or speak with them at an upcoming event.

Prospective students: Please direct your questions to gradinfo@ce.gatech.edu for assistance.
