-The small class size affords personalized access to career services, faculty and administrators. There are lots of opportunities for consulting projects with Atlanta-based companies. Moreover, UGA's strong MIS and entrepreneurship programs attracts a lot of students who will be in the tech startup mix. I've seen several tech start-ups spring up from our class, alone.
