To Celebrate the 100th Anniversary of The Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics The Inn at Virginia Tech and Skelton Conference Center Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, VA 24061
GENERAL INFORMATION:
Virginia’s senior land-grant university, today the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, more commonly known as Virginia Tech, was founded in 1872, and just thirty-six years later in 1908, mechanics became an identifiable separate entity in the College of Engineering.
During its one-hundred-year history the department housing mechanics, like the University itself, underwent several name changes, and today it is known as the Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics.
As part of the activities to celebrate its centennial, the Department is hosting a two-day mechanics conference on May 29 & 30 at The Inn at Virginia Tech and Skelton Conference Center.
All interested mechanicians are invited to submit one-page abstracts related to any aspect of fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, materials, dynamics and control, and biomechanics, as well as emerging areas in mechanics.
In addition to the parallel sessions of the conference, there will be a banquet in the evening of the 29th.
The University’s golf course adjoins the grounds of the conference center.
