Lauren E. Silver is an academic advisor II in ISyE. She collaborates with undergraduate students in long- and short-term academic planning, including 1) course scheduling and registration; 2) exploring study abroad, co-op, and internship opportunities; and 3) assisting students with academic petitions and navigating their way toward graduation.

Prior to Georgia Tech, Silver advised undergraduate students pursuing degrees through Georgia State University’s Andrew Young School of Policy Studies and School of Public Health. She was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to teach at both the undergraduate and graduate levels while in graduate school—during that time she developed her interest in working with university-level students. She moved to Atlanta to pursue her M.P.H. after conducting health policy and public health research for two social science research firms in the Washington, D.C. area.

Silver received her B.A. in public policy from Vanderbilt University in 2004 and her M.P.H. from the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University in 2013.
