About Us

We are the Engineers Without Borders Chapter at NMT. Our purpose reflects that of Engineers Without Borders-USA: "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." To that end, we intend to:

Create a sense of excitement and enthusiasm about solving technical development problems within a cultural and social context

Organize project teams to design and implement engineering projects either locally or internationally

Publicize research opportunities and encourage students to undertake research on technical development problems, and to ensure that the completed research is returned to the EWB-USA database

Take the lead on technical development problems that are environmentally sound and economically sustainable

Work with EWB-USA to ensure the quality of the engineering package and the end product for the community.
