Bria Matthews

Majored in Electrical Engineering
Georgia Institute of Technology, Class of 2021
From Forest Park, GA

Why Georgia Tech? I chose to enroll at this great institution because of it's profound reputation and its ability to yield thriving professionals in my desired career field: Electrical Engineering. Not only this, but I've found great success in my track and field career through the support of my coach and fellow athletes. Currently, my favorite part of the education I'm receiving at Georgia Tech is my participation in the Opportunity Research Scholar Program. Not only is my research furthering my understanding of renewable energy, it's also giving me a chance to help a city with little cost to them. This program has greatly improved my professional skills and I'm continuing to learn from this experience.

Work Experience

Opportunity Research Scholar (ORS) at Georgia Institute of Technology

ORS is a research program offered by Georgia Tech to Electrical and Computer Engineering students. Its purpose is not only to allow students to pursue their education in an interactive, innovative way, but also to help them become a well-rounded professional through presenting, documentation and communication. My research project is focused on developing a product called Haiti RELAY, a solar PV system developed entirely by my team and me. The goal is to create a cost-effective, long-lasting, sustainable product to send to Haiti in response to the lack of access to energy in many areas particularly Thoman, Haiti.
