The MGRP is a key component of GTRI's Intelligent Sustainable Technology Division (ISTD). The MGRP provides opportunities for U.S. military personnel to conduct part-time research at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) while obtaining a STEM graduate degree at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Military personnel perform state-of-the-art research as a Military Graduate Research Assistant (MGRA) working alongside full-time GTRI Research Faculty. Currently, ISTD has two military graduate research assistants (MGRAs) who are part of MGRP.
