The Strategic Energy Institute and the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs at the Georgia Institute of Technology today jointly announced the appointment of Elizabeth Sherwood-Randall, former deputy secretary at the U.S. Department of Energy, as a Distinguished Professor of the Practice in the Nunn School and as a Senior Fellow at the Strategic Energy Institute.
“We are extremely pleased to welcome Dr. Sherwood-Randall to our Georgia Tech family and faculty,” said Rafael L. Bras, provost and executive vice president for academic affairs. “Few can claim the depth and breadth of knowledge and experience about national security matters and energy and climate policies that Dr. Sherwood-Randall brings to Georgia Tech. Her presence will add to the growing expertise and reputation in the realm of policy at the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs and other schools around the campus.”
Sherwood-Randall’s exemplary career has been dedicated to public service. As the U.S. Deputy Secretary of Energy from 2014-2017, she provided strategic direction for the agency’s broad missions in national security, science and energy, environmental management, and emergency preparedness. This included advancing the development of a network of regional energy innovation partnerships. The Georgia Tech Energy, Policy, and Innovation Center has played a leading role in implementing this network of partnerships and was founded to conduct energy research and to design policy specific to the Southeast. Under her leadership, the Department of Energy implemented a new approach to increasing the nation’s readiness to prevent and respond to natural, physical, and cyber threats to the power grid. In addition, she led bilateral energy, climate, and nuclear security cooperation with key international counterparts.
