  <title><![CDATA[Outgoing Exchange Participation Shows Robust Growth]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>The Office of International Education (OIE) is excited to announce that a record number of students will be studying abroad on exchange for the coming semester. &nbsp;In Spring 2019, 178 Georgia Tech students will be attending 40 partner institutions in 23 countries. This number has tripled in just three years.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Currently the top 5 exchange institutions are <a href="https://atlas.gatech.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgram&amp;Program_ID=10003">UC3M</a> in Madrid, Spain; <a href="https://atlas.gatech.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgram&amp;Program_ID=10029">HKUST</a> in Hong Kong; <a href="https://atlas.gatech.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgram&amp;Program_ID=10007">UNSW</a> in Sydney, Australia; <a href="https://atlas.gatech.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgram&amp;Program_ID=10086">NUS</a> in Singapore, and <a href="https://atlas.gatech.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgram&amp;Program_ID=10065">Eindhoven</a> in the Netherlands. Of the 178 students studying abroad on exchange, this group represents 27 of the 35 undergraduate majors at Tech. Industrial Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Design, Business Administration, and Biomedical Engineering are the top majors for this group of students. In a small break from Tech tradition, this group is 42% male and 58% female.</p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
