At 11 a.m., Gary McMurray, Interim Executive Director of IRIM, and Nader Sadegh, Director of the Robotics Ph.D. Program will provide an introduction to all things robotics at Georiga Tech.

From 1:30 to 4 p.m., RoboGrads will host a board/card game where you can meet other new students and existing robotics students and faculty.

In previous years, RoboGrads typically hosts a picnic during the middle of summer. This year, it is now part of our welcome event for new students! At 4 p.m., we will walk in a group to Piedmont Park to enjoy a great picnic, complete with free freshly grilled food, all the fixings, and sides, as well as outdoor events.
