As John Lennon sang, “We all want to change the world.” Today, through the Global Seminars program, U of M engineering students set foot on a path to realizing that dream.
For two weeks starting in late December, a group of students from the College of Science and Engineering visited Tanzania to perform research on a growing global crisis: the coming scarcity of clean water supplies. They formed three groups; each chose a village and designed a potential water system for it.
Besides an on-the-ground look at what water engineers do, the students got a taste of what it’s like to work abroad on projects with real-world impact.
