The College of Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology is one of the six colleges at the institute.
See main article: History of Georgia Tech. Until 1990, there was no independent college for the sciences. Before then, there had been three colleges: the College of Engineering, the College of Management, and College of Science and Liberal Studies (COSALS). As part of his restructuring plan, John Patrick Crecine reorganized the institute; he split COSALS into the College of Sciences and combined the liberal arts and management programs into the Ivan Allen College of Management and Liberal Arts.[3] The latter would be split by G. Wayne Clough in 1998.
Almost all of the undergraduate degrees offered by the College of Sciences have concentration options and/or a "business plan."[4]
