We were honored to award Sebastian Thrun an honorary Ph.D. during this year’s Fall Commencement. Thrun’s visionary work through Udacity, in partnership with Georgia Tech, made the launch of our Online Master of Science in Computer Science (OMSCS) program possible. With more than 15,000 current students and more than 12,000 graduates, OMSCS has become the largest and most impactful online master’s program in the world. This groundbreaking initiative embodies Georgia Tech’s commitment to accessibility and excellence, transforming lives and reshaping the future of education.
