Symposium History

The Stonecipher Symposium brings distinguished speakers and events to campus as a forum to discuss contemporary issues of concern to engineers, scientists, humanists and the general public.  Students, as future leaders of our nation, are made aware of issues that are important to the development of a nation and a culture and are encouraged to participate and share their viewpoints.  

Among this year's TTU sponsors are the Center for the Management, Utilization and Protection of Water Resources, the College of Arts and Sciences Terry Martin Stonecipher Fund ,  the College of Engineering and the English Department.

In its fifth year, the Stonecipher Symposium continues to bring together students, scholars and representatives from industry, government and the community.  The annual event is named for and partially funded by Harry Stonecipher, Vice Chairman of the Boeing Company and 1960 Tennessee Tech physics graduate.
