Land development incorporates all facets of civil and environmental engineering -- water resources, structures, geotechnical, road design, storm sewers and environmental issues.
The Land Development Design Initiative (LDDI) is designed to raise awareness of land development as a career opportunity for undergraduate students at Virginia Tech. This initiative will benefit students by providing in-depth exposure into this aspect of civil and environmental engineering, increase the ability of future employers to interact with students and ultimately create opportunities for internships, research and graduate work in land development.
The Land Development Design Initiative is a partnership that is unique in its breadth and scope and is making a difference in preparing undergraduate students for a career in this dynamic industry.
