With overseas programs currently on hiatus due to the pandemic, there are still opportunities available this Summer for Engineering students to gain valuable work experience virtually from home, all while making a positive social impact.

Over 18 days, participants will be immersed in a real-world learning experience focused on engineering and design, learning from and working with Ni-Vanuatu communities. Students will engage in project-based initiatives and be mentored by a diverse group of professional humanitarian engineers. The Impact Intensive Digital Design Summit is a deep-dive into engineering practice, creating the space and time to immerse in a real-world and complex learning environment. The experience aims to complement and expand the boundaries of the university experience. It also seeks to shape the next generation of sociotechnical engineering leaders.
