Construction Career Fairs

The Myers-Lawson School of Construction Career Fair is held twice a year. In the Fall this event takes place at The Inn at Virginia Tech and Skelton Center and in the Spring it takes place at Cassell Coliseum.

The Construction Internship and Career Fair provides construction industry and engineering professionals the opportunity to meet students for career employment, summer internships, and co-op opportunities. Click here to view company listing from Fall 2009 Construction Career Fair. 

Who Should Attend?

• Any company dealing with construction (residential through commercial, industrial, highway, land development and specialty contractors) and/or civil engineering design should find this career fair worthwhile. Employers who are more interested in design may want to attend the (now separate) Civil and Environmental Engineering Career Fair.
• All students interested in working in these areas are invited to submit resumes in advance to Amanda Lucas at amanda.lucas@vt.edu and attend this event. The primary student attendees are from the Department of Building Construction and Civil & Environmental Engineering.
