The Open House includes a free bus trip to VA Tech from the Hampton Roads area
(Virginia), an overnight stay, and a day exploring VA Tech's undergraduate
programs in engineering and computer science. In addition to touring the
campus, participants will explore the VT College of Engineering, its

faculty, staff, and current engineering students.
Only students who are currently High School Juniors are eligible to
participate. Students who are members of CHROME (Cooperating Hampton Roads
Organizations for Minorities in Engineering), females, and students of color
traditionally underrepresented in engineering and science are especially
encouraged to apply!
Transportation, meals, and overnight lodging are all FREE; however, students
should bring at least $20 for snacks (to/from Blacksburg, VA), souvenirs, or

This trip has been confirmed. Detailed information regarding trip logistics
will be announced via email to students who are selected to attend.
