Aerospace Engineering professor Karen Feigh has been selected to join the fifth cohort of Georgia Tech’s Emerging Leaders Program (ELP). Starting in Fall 2020 and continuing through Spring 2021, Feigh and 15 other participants will take part in leadership development workshops, a fall weekend activity, small-group work, self-assessments, and 360-degree assessments.

Feigh earned her undergraduate degree at the Daniel Guggenheim School of Aerospace Engineering and currently serves as the associate chair for the AE School's research programs.

“As we enter our fifth year, we are so pleased with the continued interest and engagement with the Emerging Leaders Program from faculty across the Colleges,” said Rafael L. Bras, provost and executive vice president for Academic Affairs and K. Harrison Brown Family Chair.

“Since 2016, the program has supported faculty who are passionate about continuing their leadership journey and, in so doing, has promoted a growing culture of leadership at Georgia Tech.”
