About Us
Engineers Without Borders UBC is a vast interdisciplinary team (including non-engineers) that works on a myriad of initiatives outside the typical hyper-technical work that engineering students normally pursue. We focus on generating long-lasting meaningful impact in the projects that we take on and work rigorously to promote the personal development of our members. We work on fostering community and building strong leaders. EWB UBC has branches working on education with VancouverÔÇÖs youth, advocacy with local MPs, and sustainability initiatives, such as aquaponics and food waste minimization apps, that involve working closely with other sustainable organizations on campus. We are passionate about discussing problems that we encounter as a society and take it one step further by formulating solutions and putting them into action. We work on both local and global projects, ranging from fundraising to technology implementation in Sub-Saharan Africa. There is a tremendous amount of room to spearhead your own initiatives and contribute to others. YouÔÇÖll have an opportunity to have some incredible conversations with insightful individuals and be a part of an engaged and inclusive community.
