We are a student chapter of Engineers Without Borders USA, based out of the Rose Hill campus of Fordham University in New York City. We implement sustainable engineering projects where lack of resources has imposed an inadequate standard of living. Our project is to implement a series of four sustainable fish farms and a hatchery for villages in Serere District, Uganda. Our students gain valuable, impactful experience by: -creating technical designs (approved by US engineers) -receiving professional mentorship -acquiring grants, donations, and sponsorships -traveling onsite and working closely with the community If you or your company are interested in supporting the work of our chapter, please email fordhamuniversity@chapters-ewb-usa.org Our Timeline 2013 The Chapter is founded, and adopts their first project to implement fish farms for communities in Uganda. 2014-15 Winter | Students and a faculty mentor travel to Uganda to build a relationship with the community members, their nonprofit partner, and select and evaluate a site for the first fish farm. 2016 Spring | Student technical designs for the first fish farm receive EWB-USA approval.
