Previously called SHaRP and SMaRT, the Explore Living Learning Community engages first-year students in activities designed to foster success and to introduce them to undergraduate research and pre-health opportunities. The Explore Living Learning Community of the College of Sciences strives to connect students with faculty, staff, and professionals across the institute in order to provide interdisciplinary support, encourage exploration of career options, develop the technical and team-building skills for early access to research and clinical opportunities, while creating a culture of curiosity and self-discovery. In alignment with the mission of Georgia Tech, the Explore Living Learning Community will develop students into tomorrow’s leaders in science, math, research, and health. They will embody the spirit of Georgia Tech’s motto “Progress through service”, utilizing their academic strengths and technical skills to collaborate with, serve, and support their diverse communities at Tech and beyond.
