She entered Carnegie Mellon at age 17 and ultimately was one of three female students in electrical engineering. Before college, she attained a perfect score on her SAT exam, the only woman in the country to do so that year and one of only 16 women at that time to ever have done so. When questioned about her intensity at the piano, she replied, "I never play anything softly".

Playing classical piano with "more than technical mastery", she planned on becoming a professional concert pianist. She graduated as valedictorian and runner-up homecoming queen. At Firestone High School, she was an outstanding student, excelling in mathematics, languages and classical piano. Resnik was noticed for "intellectual brilliance" while still in kindergarten and entered elementary school a year early. Her parents divorced while she was a teenager in response, she prepared and filed a court case so that her custody could be switched from her mother to her father, with whom she was particularly close. She grew up in an observant Jewish home in a family of rabbinical descent, studying at Hebrew school every weekend and celebrating her Bat Mitzvah. Both her parents were Jewish immigrants originally from Ukraine, (her father having immigrated via Israel). Her father was fluent in eight languages and served in the Army in military intelligence and aerial reconnaissance during World War II in the Pacific Theater. Judith Resnik was born in 1949 to Sarah and Marvin Resnik, an optometrist, in Akron, Ohio. She was also a pilot and made research contributions to biomedical engineering as a research fellow of biomedical engineering at the National Institutes of Health.

While training on the astronaut program, she developed software and operating procedures for NASA missions. Recognized while still a child for her "intellectual brilliance," Resnik went on to work for RCA as an engineer on Navy missile and radar projects, was a senior systems engineer for Xerox Corporation and published research on special-purpose integrated circuitry before she was recruited by NASA to the astronaut program as a mission specialist at age 28. in electrical engineering from the University of Maryland.

She went on to graduate with a degree in electrical engineering from Carnegie Mellon before attaining a Ph.D. Judith Resnik was accepted at Carnegie Mellon after being 1 of only 16 women in the history of the United States to have attained a perfect score on the SAT exam at the time. The IEEE Judith Resnik Award for space engineering is named in her honor. She was the first Jewish woman of any nationality in space.

Resnik was the second American woman in space and the fourth woman in space worldwide, logging 145 hours in orbit. Judith Arlene Resnik ( / ˈ r ɛ z n ɪ k/ Ap– January 28, 1986) was an American electrical engineer, software engineer, biomedical engineer, pilot and NASA astronaut who died aboard the Space Shuttle Challenger when it was destroyed during the launch of mission STS-51-L.
