MSE Assistant Professor and Goizueta Early Career Faculty Chair Juan-Pablo Correa-Baena has been selected to participate in the 2023 Symposium of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE). Correa-Baena is one of eighty-one highly accomplished early-career engineers selected by the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) to take part in The Grainger Foundation Frontiers of Engineering 2023 Symposium. Engineers who are performing exceptional research and technical work in a variety of disciplines will come together for the two-and-a-half-day event. The participants — from industry, academia, and government — were nominated by fellow engineers or organizations. Elizabeth Qian and Tim Lieuwen, both from Georgia Tech AE, will also be participating in the symposium.

“The Grainger Foundation Frontiers of Engineering symposium helps foster a collaborative spirit in early-career engineers by bringing together a diverse group from different technical areas and work sectors to spark innovation, broaden perspectives on new approaches to engineering problems, and develop long-term relationships that are critical in advancing engineering efforts that are critical to our nation’s future,” said NAE President John L. Anderson.

The symposium will be hosted by the University of Colorado, Boulder, Sept. 10-13, 2023.
