A brief description of the sustainability-focused immersive experience(s) offered by the institution:
USU Engineers Without Borders has helped implement a variety of projects: solar panels, wells, water pumps, dormitories, lighting systems, water filtration, and latrines over the last six years in Mexico, Peru, and Uganda. "EWB-USA supports community-driven development programs worldwide by collaborating with local partners to design and implement sustainable engineering projects, while creating transformative experiences and responsible leaders." These projects address social, economic, and environmental sustainability.
The short term study abroad program for International Forestry and Natural Resource management program takes a broad view of key natural resource issues that have global scope, implication, and effect. Students examine specific case studies and examples by traveling to the tropical rain forests of Puerto Rico.
