the helmet watching another baseball load in: 👁️👄👁️ 
 
At Virginia Tech’s Helmet Lab, researchers are analyzing high-impact baseball hits to better understand concussions and improve sport-specific helmet safety, especially for catcher impacts that behave differently from other sports.

Meet Jordan Walker, @vt_engineering's Outstanding Senior.

What started with a high school drafting class and a few “find your major” quizzes turned into a passion for water resources engineering, mentorship, and serving others through civil and environmental engineering.

Congrats, Jordan!

What started as a quick campus visit turned into an unforgettable journey for Nichole Dorn.

After graduating, she joined @kimleyhorn as a civil engineering analyst and recently earned @vt_engineering Outstanding Master’s Student Award for her achievements in sustainable land development. 🥳

Congratulations, Nichole! #VTCEE

A new demonstration facility is opening doors for @vt_engineering Hokies. 🌱

Virginia Tech and Aclara Resources are advancing an Americas-based green tech supply chain with a new rare earths separation pilot plant at the Corporate Research Center, giving students hands-on experience to prepare for industry careers.

If balancing D1 athletics and an engineering major seems impossible, well, dozens of Hokies from @vt_engineering are proving otherwise. 🙌

Meet a few of those Hokies. ➡️
