Blacksburg is a college town in Virginia’s New River Valley, home to Virginia Tech, one of the state’s largest universities and a major research institution in engineering, agriculture and technology. The Virginia Tech Corporate Research Center hosts dozens of companies, from defense contractors to software firms, and the university draws faculty, recruiters and research partners year-round. The town sits on a plateau surrounded by the Blue Ridge and Allegheny mountains, giving it a mild climate and excellent outdoor recreation.

Blacksburg is about four hours from Washington and three from Charlotte by car, and the nearest airline service is in Roanoke, roughly 45 minutes away. The Virginia Tech Montgomery Executive Airport sits right next to campus, so private flights put alumni, parents and visiting researchers within minutes of Lane Stadium or the labs. Visitors come for Hokie football, commencement weekends, hiking in the Jefferson National Forest, paddling the New River and drives along the nearby Blue Ridge Parkway.
