tremendous academic offerings available from the VA Tech College of
Engineering.
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 laboratories and research facilities, and meet with
engineering professors, faculty, staff, and current engineering students.
Only students who are currently High School Juniors are eligible to
participate. Students of color traditionally underrepresented in
engineering and science are especially encouraged to participate. Students
who are members of CHROME (Cooperating Hampton Roads Organizations for
Minorities in Engineering) are especially encouraged to apply.
Transportation, meals, and lodging are free; however, students should bring
$20 for snacks (to/from Blacksburg, VA), souvenirs, and miscellaneous
