Students attending an Engineering and Computing Career Conference The Excellence Awards Banquet is held every year to celebrate the academic excellence and leadership of female students in the College of Engineering. This highly visible event brings together students, alumni, corporate partners and Institute leaders to recognize the accomplishments of female engineering students who have achieve “high honors” status by earning a cumulative GPA of 3.35 and above. As a testimony to the excellence of CoE’s female undergraduate students, last year, over 500 female engineering students, representing nearly a third of CoE’s female engineering students qualified for this event.

The EAB also serves as a platform to recognize student and faculty leaders through Student Mentoring Awards, Faculty Mentoring Awards, and Teaching Excellence Awards, which are given annually at this event

The overwhelming support of many companies for the banquet reflects a genuine commitment to the success and engagement of women engineers as they develop into future leaders. These corporate sponsors are committed to increasing the number of women in the technical, engineering and scientific fields. The active role of corporate sponsors gives them the opportunity to positively impact the careers of the best and brightest women students at Georgia Tech
