Profile


WVU Tech industrial technology student, Gary Duffield

Gary 
Duffield

Current Student

Gary is a native of Clay County, West Virginia and a senior industrial technology major at WVU Tech.  He chose WVU Tech because it was the perfect place to build on his experience.

"I retired from the United States Air Force in 2014 where I was a Metals Technology technician. Metals Tech personnel are responsible for the inspection and repair of critical aircraft components, fabrication of parts and repair of support equipment. We're trained machinists, welders and fabricators. A bachelor's degree in industrial technology enhances these hands-on skills and readies you for leadership positions in production, management and quality assurance in the industrial and manufacturing trades."
