Learning Communities
Living Learning Communities (LLCs) link academics to on-campus living. Each Georgia Tech community is an integrated experience that promotes interactions between faculty and students, fosters collaboration among students, enhances campus and civic engagement, and eases both the academic and social transition to college. LLCs typically combine academic coursework, events and programming, and a common first-year residential experience.
