Advisory Board

The Civil Engineering Advisory Board is comprised of civil engineers from various educational and industrial backgrounds, the majority of whom are WVU Tech alumni. As a program constituent, the Civil Engineering Advisory Board provides input to our curriculum and our program educational objectives.
