The Office of International Education (OIE) at Georgia Institute of Technology is pleased to announce OIE Photo Contest. The competition is open to degree-seeking Georgia tech study abroad students or international students who took photos as part of their international experience.
Georgia Tech offers life-changing international opportunities-whether that’s studying here in Atlanta, studying abroad, researching or interning abroad.
