Marquis Vista is within close proximity of The Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech), a public, coeducational research university and a member of the ACC. Founded in 1885, Georgia Tech is one of the nation's top research universities, distinguished by its commitment to improving the human condition through advanced science and technology. Georgia Tech is organized into six colleges and contains about 31 departments/units, with a strong emphasis on science and technology. It is most recognized for its degree programs in engineering, computing, and the sciences, but also offers degrees in architecture, liberal arts, and management. In April 2010, Tech was elected to the highly prestigious Association of American Universities, reflecting its commitment to high quality instruction and research.
Georgia Tech's campus occupies 400 acres in the heart of the city of Atlanta, where 20,000 undergraduate and graduate students receive a focused, technologically based education. As far as sports fans go, The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are one of the Southeast’s most recognizable mascots, and Football Saturdays see a multitude of students, alumni and fans in the school’s signature white and gold colors.
