ACC Academic Leaders Network Fellows Selected for 2025

Five Georgia Tech faculty members have been selected for the 2025 ACC Academic Leaders Network (ACC ALN) Fellows program. The ACC ALN program is designed to foster cross-institutional networking and collaboration between ACC schools, while increasing the academic leadership capacity within each institution.

The new cohort includes: 

• Jeff Albert, Interim Chair, School of Music

• Young-Hui Chang, Associate Dean of Faculty, College of Sciences

• Jenna Jordan, Associate Professor and Associate Chair, Sam Nunn School of International Affairs

• Christopher Muhlstein, Professor and Associate Chair for Academics and Research, School of Materials Science and Engineering

• Kelly Ritter, Chair, School of Literature, Media, and Communication

In 2025, fellows will participate in three in-person conferences at Wake Forest University, the University of Miami, and Georgia Tech. Fellows will form project teams around topics of interest, develop a paper or other deliverable, and present their findings at the final conference in October at Georgia Tech.

The ACC ALN program strengthens a culture of community, enhances relationships among faculty across the ACC, and further develops leaders in ways that no single university can accomplish on its own. Explore ALN program details and find out about current and past Georgia Tech fellows, here.
