EWB Purdue is also both a student organization and a section of the EPICS program at Purdue University. As a student organization, we welcome students of all years and disciplines, and we offer our members social and professional development opportunities. EPICS is a service-learning design program focused on building partnerships between students and communities to address human and environmental needs. As a section of EPICS, our chapter members receive class-credit for their work on our projects. EPICS also provides our team with technical and logistical support from Purdue faculty and staff members.
