Who We Are

The Center for Assistive Technology & Environmental Access (CATEA), formerly known as the Center for Rehabilitation Technology, has been in existence for over 20 years. The name of the center was changed July 1, 2001, to reflect more accurately the two foci of the center:

• Development, evaluation, and utilization of assistive technology (technologies or devices designed to allow or improve performance of activities of daily living or work); and
• Design and development of accessible environments (environments, private and public, accessible to all people, including those with disabilities).

CATEA is a center within the College of Architecture at the Georgia Institute of Technology. The Center has partial funding from the State of Georgia.
