Engineers can do anything. Just ask the Georgia Tech graduates honored March 21 at the 2026 College of Engineering Alumni Awards Induction Ceremony in Atlanta.

Among the group of 32 alumni were entrepreneurs and advocates, investors and builders, sports executives and doctors. All were celebrated for their contributions to the engineering profession, career accomplishments, and the ways they’ve enhanced the lives of others both personally and professionally.

“Tonight, we celebrate the tenacity, creativity, and enduring impact of engineering, and the leadership and fearlessness of being a Georgia Tech engineer,” said Interim Dean Doug Williams. “We’re here to recognize alumni who embody the spirit of our College — who anticipate and engineer the future and don’t flinch at ‘impossible.’”

Honorees are annually nominated by committees within each of the College’s eight schools and formally submitted for selection. This year’s group graduated from 1969 to 2022. They included 10 new members of the Engineering Hall of Fame, the College’s highest honor.

There is also the honor of the Academy of Distinguished Engineering Alumni, where two MSE alumni have been inducted. William Clyburn, Jr (CerE 1989) and Keith Hearon (MSE 2009) are both a part of the 2026 class.
