Hi All,

 

Great meeting on Wednesday! Here is the travel application I spoke about during the meeting.  As a reminder, here are the details of the trip.  If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask.

 

Dates: May 8th – May 17th

Required to be a member of EWB, but not required to be on the EPICS team

Cost: Approximately $1,200

This will be a 2 credit study abroad trip.

 

The travel team will be required to attend 5 pre-travel meetings, and will be expected to do some additional work in preparation for the trip.  Sue Khalifah, whom you may have met last night or previously will be the Purdue representative on the trip, and will be accompanied by Roger Ward, our EWB professional mentor.  The goal of the trip will be to interface with our partners in Nakyenyi, Uganda, and to complete construction of the biogas digester.  We will be completing startup during this trip as well.

 

Applications:  Please complete the attached application and send them back to me no later than Thursday, January 19th.

 

Interviews:  Sign up for an interview slot by following the link below.  Let me know if you have a conflict with these times, or if all of the timeslots fill up.  We can open up more availability for interviews.
