They are a vital part of the “hands-on, minds-on” curriculum where students applyengineering principles to projects sponsored by industry, government or individuals. EWBprojects present opportunities for students to apply engineering theory to real life problems thatare not only outside of the classroom, but also often outside of their country and culture.Properly addressing the problem required the students to appreciate the societal
