Welcome to the Myers-Lawson School of Construction

The Myers-Lawson School of Construction (MLSoC) was established not to simply add to technical understanding; but to add courses and teaching pedagogy to more fully develop and grow the individual students who take part in the degrees and outreach efforts established by the MLSoC. Specifically the School will concentrate on developing values based leadership skills, creative learning and research environments, and integrating and sustaining the built environment.

We believe in our obligation to the people we work with, the society/community we live in, and the global environment we must sustain and improve. As we set out to achieve our vision of being the Beacon for Construction Education at Virginia Tech, we will do it different, we will do it better, and we will provide a forum to grow our students with the fundamental principles deeply felt and committed to by our graduates and outreach participants. The faculty in the Myers-Lawson School are poised to take on the leadership role for construction as a major player in higher education

Sincerely,
Yvan J. Beliveau
Director, Myers-Lawson School of Construction
