Audra Murphey"The Public Policy program at Georgia Tech has given me far more than I could have ever expected. Leading up to my first year at Tech, I was afraid of being in a smaller major; I was afraid I would have fewer resources or limited access to activities I wanted to be involved in like research and internships. What I found in the Ivan Allen College was exactly the opposite. I had direct access to myprofessors and advisors which made it easy to build relationships with them. Public Policy at GT focuses largely on this student-faculty interaction, which helped me become a Research Assistant for two of my professors. I have loved working with these research teams and gaining the experience I’m going to need later in both my academic and professional careers.”
