Engineering life at WVU is more than just classes and books. Almost without fail, our best students are the ones that go out and get involved in activities and clubs that suit their interests...... and if you have an interest, chances are WVU has a club to match it! The College of Engineering and Mineral Resources and all of its individual majors offer student-run chapters of real engineering professional organizations that enhance your classroom learning, with field trips to see what your learning is doing in the real world, and speakers from industry.

WVU's Rec Center, a short walk from the residence towers, offers a world-class facility to keep your body as fit as your mind, and best of all it's free to students!

In addition to all that WVU offers, the city of Morgantown, West Virginia, Voted as the Most Livable Small Town in America, has the amenities of a city twice its size. BOPARC, the Board of Parks and Recreation Commissioners, runs Morgantown's parks, as well as the beautiful Metropolitan Theater. 10 miles outside the city are Cooper's Rock State Park and Chestnut Ridge Park, escapes from the city not far away.
