Shared Experiences
Interest Groups provide opportunities for employees to connect, share experiences, and engage in activities they are passionate about.
They serve as a platform for employees to come together and foster connections both within the workplace and the wider community. Most groups are independent initiatives and are not affiliated with or endorsed by Virginia Tech. Any Virginia Tech-affiliated groups are open to all employees. Additionally, some groups may have fees associated with membership.
