Greetings from Engineers Without Borders at the University of Central Florida!

  Established in 2007, we are one of the student chapters of Engineers Without Borders USA. Our mission is to partner with disadvantaged communities to improve their quality of life through implementation of environmentally sound and economically sustainable engineering projects, while developing internationally responsible engineering students. EWB UCF looks forward to helping bring safe, potable drinking water to Mare Brignol in the Southeast Department of Haiti. The Officers were accompanied by licensed, Professional Engineers in December 2008 on their initial trip to the community and three additional teams travelled in March, May, and December of 2009. Our trip for December 2010 had to be postponed due to the cholera outbreak. Our Implementation trip is scheduled for May 2011. Check out our new blog Unfiltered for updates from our travel teams in Haiti.

There are several ways in which you can get involved with us. If you are a student at the University of Central Florida the easiest way would be to come to our next general meeting. All upcoming events and details can be found on our Calendar. At the general meetings, you can find out what progress we're making on our project and how you can help. While our social events are more relaxed and fun, you’re sure to find some of our knowledgeable members who will be more than happy to discuss any aspect of our chapter with you. Don't worry if you are not an engineering major, all majors are welcome and whatever skill set you possess, we can use it. There are many aspects to EWB other than the engineering side. In order to be successful we need people who can help us with international relations, marketing ourselves, fundraising, etc. If you are interested, please don’t hesitate to get involved.

If you are not a student at the university, you can still contribute to our chapter by making a donation to us via Engineers Without Borders USA by clicking here.

Feel free to Contact Us if you have any questions or concerns.
