The Way to Greatness Starts Here
You’re here for more than a degree. This is the time to explore your interests, build lasting relationships and take huge steps toward your future.
THESTATEWAY® will take you into classrooms where innovative professors are swapping traditional lectures for practical applications and into research labs where faculty are leading their fields. And it’ll connect you to vital internships and first jobs with Fortune 500 companies (think: Coca-Cola, Delta and UPS).
Whether you dream of designing video games, reporting world news or spearheading your own startup, you’ll have the chance to pursue your passion right here. And when you leave Georgia State, you’ll have the skills to make it happen.
The ATL, the Big Peach, the A — whatever you call it, this is home.
