BECKLEY, WV (WVNS) — Six majors currently offered at West Virginia University Institute of Technology could be cut. The WVU Board of Governors will vote in June of 2024 on whether to keep or cut the programs.

New Friends of Charity Auto Fair dates and concerts announced

Faculty members made the recommendations for the majors, and a panel later reviewed them, according to data at the WVU-Tech website.

Jennifer Wood, a spokeswoman for WVU Tech, said on Friday, April 19, 2024, that the proposed plan would not cut personnel.
