The EVP is comprised of mini-teams,each with at least one upper division and one lower division student. Upper division studentsmentor lower division students, and practice valuable skills such as leadership and projectmanagement. Lower division students gain valuable insight from a more experienced student.Each student is also able to learn and practice many other skills such as teamwork, budgeting,computer design, and machining. The EVP garners strong support and participation from thestudents every semester. During

This group promotesengineering service projects in other countries. It is loosely patterned after Engineers WithoutBorders from whom they have learned a great deal. The students who started the group wished itto be separate from Engineers without Borders so that they would not have to deal with thebureaucracy inherent in any larger organization. They also wished to have a service organizationthat was explicitly faith based, as is Baylor University. The author is a member of Engineerswithout Borders and this membership has been very helpful.Engineers

Over the last two decades,programs such as Project Lead the Way, Engineering is Elementary, and others have allowedmany K-12 schools to incorporate engineering into their offerings. At the same time, manyuniversities, corporations and other youth organizations have offered opportunities for studentsto learn about engineering outside of the classroom in informal settings.
