Georgia Tech’s graduating class for spring 2022 will include 76 Yellow Jackets athletes across 13 sports. The group consists of students who have earned degrees in 18 different undergraduate majors, including aerospace engineering, architecture and chemical and biomedical engineering, and six master’s degree programs.
The most prominent of the soon-to-be alumni is former MLB star Mark Teixeira, who came back to Tech in the spring of 2021 to finish his remaining 41 credits after leaving Tech to play professional baseball in 2001. Teixeira will graduate with a degree in business administration.
By the measure of the NCAA, Tech had a 90% graduation success rate through December 2021, an all-time high for the athletic department.
