2016 Via Report

Department head’s message: Greetings from Blacksburg! Once again it is our pleasure to present the annual edition of the Via Report. This year’s report is especially memorable because it is the 30th edition. We will have the opportunity to recognize the current Via scholars, and alumni of the program at our annual Via Banquet in December. I know that the Via family would be proud of the work these students are doing and their service to society in general. I hope you enjoy the excellent articles on several of the outstanding research efforts that are in progress within the department.
