Engineers for a Sustainable World (ESW) is a student-run project-based club, functioning both as a chapter of the greater ESW organization and under UB’s Student Association. ESW’s goal is to fund students' sustainable project ideas, and improve sustainability both on campus and in the greater Buffalo community. Any student may pitch a project or choose to pick up an existing project, and with application approval, receive funding and work with a team towards their project goals over the course of the year!  One of ESW’s priorities is to create a warm, welcoming environment for all members to share their sustainability passions. While our club has “engineer” in the title, you do not have to be an engineer to join ESW! In recent years, we have welcomed a large number of Environment and Sustainability majors, and have had many non-engineering Presidents and E-board members! If you’re interested in engineering, sustainability, or both, ESW has a place for you!
