Lily Turaski returned to Georgia Tech as a Lecturer in the School of Materials Science and Engineering in Fall 2023. She is an enthusiastic lecturer with experience in research-based instructional methods.
As the course coordinator for MSE 2001: Principles and Applications of Engineering Materials, she oversees the curriculum for the School of MSE’s largest service class in addition to teaching the course each semester. She seeks to inspire students to become more aware of the ways we all use materials science in our work/research and in our everyday lives.
Her research interests lie at the intersection of engineering education and materials science engineering. Prior to becoming faculty at Georgia Tech, she attended Stanford University for graduate school and received her BS in MSE from Georgia Tech. Go Jackets!
