EPICS in IEEE

EPICS stands for Engineering Projects in Community Service. The program was founded in 1995 at Purdue University. It was created to meet a two-fold challenge: providing community service organizations with technology they need to improve and deliver services, and providing undergraduate students with educational experiences to broaden their skills. For more than ten years, weve been providing both university and high school students the opportunity to work with engineering professionals and non-profit organizations to develop innovative solutions that transform communities around the world. The program has now spread to universities throughout the United States and abroad, as well several K-12 programs. EPICS in IEEE was founded in 2009 and has facilitated more than 130 projects in over 30 countries and has impacted more than 250,000 people through our university initiative and K-12 initiative
