2026 ASCE Virginias Student Symposium

Dear Industry Professionals, ODU Friends, and Alumni,

We are incredibly excited to present a magnificent opportunity to shape the future of civil engineering while supporting ODU. On April 9th - 11th, ODU will proudly host the 2026 ASCE Virginias Student Symposium. We are inviting you to partner with us as a sponsor for this incredible event.

This three-day symposium will bring together over 300 talented civil engineering students from 11 excellent universities across Virginia and West Virginia. The symposium will allow a unique platform for these incredible students to showcase their blossoming skills, knowledge, and competitive spirit through a plethora of different events.

To complement the exciting events, the symposia will also offer many different networking opportunities, professional development workshops, and keynote speakers. This symposium will be more that just a competition, it’s a springboard for the next generation of engineering leaders and innovators.

Sponsorship offers valuable opportunities to promote your brand and position your company as a leader in the industry, create a lasting impact by inspiring and connecting to aspiring civil engineers, leaving a legacy that will benefit the entire civil engineering community, build meaningful connections by networking with industry leaders, university faculty, and future civil engineers, and finally, give back to ODU and help continue its stellar legacy in civil engineering education.
