Make a global impact with an EPICS Global Intensive Experience
Build your skills, explore a new culture and work alongside community partners through Global Engineering Projects in Community Service, or EPICS, study abroad programs! These hands-on experiences bring human-centered design to life through customer discovery, rapid prototyping and field testing while addressing community needs.
Global EPICS offers opportunities to put your learning into practice, gain experience for your resume and connect with communities abroad. Students interested in engineering, design, business, sustainability and other majors are encouraged to learn more.
Applications for spring break in Spain are now open, and applications for Kenya post-spring are opening soon!
Attend an upcoming info session to explore our programs and ask questions. All times are Arizona time.
