ENGINEERING WITHOUT BORDERS

Engineering Without Borders (EWB) is a service organization that connects students of all disciplines with communities in need all over the world. Their mission is to partner with disadvantaged areas and improve their quality of life through economical, sustainable, and innovative engineering projects while developing students with education, experience, and encouragement. The name itself speaks volumes, as it is a national organization connecting the disparities of communities that are in need of empowerment to meet their basic needs. Currently, the Engineering Without Borders chapter in Virginia Tech has three main teams working on different projects in three different locations.
