A warm welcome to the online home of Engineers Without Borders Strathclyde!

Over the next few weeks and months, we hope to start up our school outreach program again, building on it's success from last year. We also hope to get a lot more branch training events, such as turbine-building workshops, DIEM workshops as well as holding a Scottish Conference. There will also be fundraising, summer placements and regional events at different branches across Scotland and the North to get involved with.

We would also like, as a long term goal, to look into the possibility of starting an education program within the university for International Development as a possible elective for future students at Strathclyde to take.

At the end of each month, we also have informal branch socials which are a lot of fun so come along and get involved to find out more.!

Branch meetings are held every Monday at 17:00 in room M329 James Weir Buidling, University of Strathclyde. If you want to contact the brach come along to a meeting or email us on contact@ewb-strathclyde.org

William, Branch President
