Georgia Institute of Technology. Engineering Experiment Station

The Engineering Experiment Station was approved by an act of the Georgia Legislature in 1919 and formally established in 1934. The purpose of this facility was to support Georgia's economic, industrial, scientific, and technological development through advanced engineering research. On October 1, 1984, the name of the Engineering Experiment Station was changed to the Georgia Tech Research Institute to better illustrate the interdisciplinary nature of the facility's work.
