Study Abroad Partnerships
Engineers for a Sustainable World encourages students to spend a semester or year studying abroad as a way to enrich their educational experience and gain valuable development knowledge. ESW builds partnerships with study abroad opportunities for our members that include a semester of intensive language and cultural study, complemented by a required field study/ project. ESW will work with admitted engineering students to identify partner organizations for their projects and funding opportunities to enable them to extend their stay.
