Student Involvement Opportunities

As the new year kicks off, many student organizations are welcoming new members.  Please stay tuned to the Blog for updates on some activities and organizations that may be of interest to you.

Engineers Without Borders at Georgia Tech is a humanitarian engineering organization that works to design and implement health and infrastructure solutions in developing countries. Our projects are almost entirely student designed and lead. In addition to our international projects, EWB-GT also has a few local projects that work to research appropriate technologies and spread the word about our work.

We are hoping to extend our member base this year, so please note that EWB is not just for civil and environmental engineers. We welcome and encourage members from all disciplines, even those that are non-engineering related. There are several aspects necessary to ensuring the success of our projects, so there is definitely a job for everyone.

Our first meeting will be Monday night (8/27/12) at 6:00 p.m. in Klaus 1456. For those who can’t make it, we will also be having a New Member Orientation on September 7th at 6:00 p.m., location TBA. If you are interested in joining our organization, please visit our website ewb-gt.org
