To All Virginia Tech Employees

You are invited to complete the Pathways community survey by November 20, 2026. The UCCGE will analyze this data as part of the 2026-27 Pathways program review.

Pathways General Education is the shared academic experience of every student at Virginia Tech.

The program is flexible, diverse, and creates a knowledge base that compliments their academic focus, interests, and meets their career goals.

Central to the initiative are the Pathways Minors, transdisciplinary programs that allow undergraduates to meet part of their general education requirements while addressing vital issues such as sustainability, leadership, cybersecurity, and big data, among many others.
