About Jason

Jason Juang is a climate change researcher and electrification advocate, interested in exploring how climate issues can be adapted to and mitigated on a local and international scale. He is currently a senior at the Georgia Institute of Technology pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a minor in Law, Science, and Technology and a certificate in Sustainable Business. Jason previously served as President of ElectrifyGT, where he led his peers to research, advocate, and educate in Georgia Tech administration for complete campus electrification, resulting in the electrification of campus landscaping equipment and police vehicles. Progressing his campus research on electrification, he is currently publishing a paper titled “A Multi-Scale Lifecycle and Technoeconomic Framework for Higher Education Fleet Electrification” in Nature Scientific Reports so that other universities and similar organizations can achieve economic and carbon mitigation benefits from electrification strategies.   Jason has been recognized for his work on campus by winning the Campus Life Scholarship and as the sole recipient of the Dow Chemical P.C. McCutcheon Award for Outstanding Student Achievement, awards given to select undergraduates for significant campus impact and has worked extensively with campus administration in the development of Georgia Tech’s Climate Action Plan. After studying abroad at the University of Sydney and participating in Sydney’s Sustainability Program, Jason wants to dive further into international climate issues, focusing on climate vulnerability, modernization, and cultural views of industrial development. Jason’s long-term vision is to use grassroots organizations, including student voices, to advocate for climate solutions that are equitable and just for vulnerable communities.   In his free time, he is immensely interested in all types of volleyball and enjoys playing anywhere he can get his hands on a ball from open gyms in Atlanta, GA to concrete courts in National Taiwan University to grass volleyball in Sydney Park, Australia. Jason is on track to receive his BA from Georgia Institute of Technology in May 2024.
