Above: Sisters Manuella (left) and Joanna Kawata An aerospace career was not on Joanna Kawata's radar when she enrolled at Georgia State's Perimeter College in 2020. She knew she loved working with technology, but she wasn't sure how to parlay that interest into her studies. And a career in helping special needs children was not on her sister's Manuella's mind when she transitioned to the Atlanta Campus from Perimeter to study biology. What a difference two years can make. Joanna will graduate in December with her associate of science degree in engineering and, this summer, she'll intern with the aerospace and defense corporation, Northrop Grumman, in in Melbourne, Fla.
