Engineers Without Borders (EWB) partners with underserved communities both at home and abroad to develop engineering solutions to their needs. Our goal is to build leaders, provide pathways to opportunities, and support a world where every community is built to thrive.

The URI EWB Student Chapter is paired with an existing international or domestic development project through EWB-USA. Our group’s mission is to work closely with the community and develop sustainable engineering solutions to their needs.

Umbrella Organization: Engineers Without Borders USA
Engineers Without Borders was started by a small group of volunteers and has grown to have thousands involved around the world. EWB works in 39 countries, has student chapters at nearly every major university in the United States, and has hundreds of engineering projects underway.
