Engineers Without Borders USYD

That’s a wrap on Marrickville High School! 🎬✨

We had an absolute blast bringing STEM to life today! Huge shoutout to our incredible volunteers who brought the energy and helped high schoolers dive deep into the world of engineering. We couldn’t have done it without your passion and teamwork! 🙌💚

🛠️ What went down:
Our workshops were buzzing with innovation as students tackled:
• Medical Supply Cart: Designing solutions for healthcare delivery! 🏥🩺
• Renewable Energy: Powering the future with sustainable ideas! ☀️🌀

🌟 Why it matters:
Beyond the technical skills, today was all about:
• Inspiring Minds: Showing students what’s possible in STEM. 🧠💡
• Building Community: Connecting uni mentors with the next generation. 🤝
• Real Impact: Taking engineering out of the classroom and into the real world! 🌏

A massive thank you again to everyone who showed up and made it happen. You guys are the heart of these outreach programs! 🌟✅

Keep an eye out for our next volunteer call-out—we’d love to see you there! 🚀

🥞🔥 EWB × SUABE Pancake BBQ Recap 🔥🥞

A huge thank you to everyone who came along to our EWB × SUABE Pancake BBQ! It was awesome seeing so many people come down, grab a pancake, and connect with fellow students across engineering.

Events like this are what make our community so great — good food, great conversations, and an opportunity to meet new faces from across different societies.

We really appreciate everyone who stopped by to support the event, and a big thank you as well to the volunteers who helped make the day run smoothly.

✨ Get Ready for Design Corner 2026 – Regional Water Challenge! ✨

We’re excited to announce the return of the Inter-University Design Corner 2026! 🚀

This year, EWB UNSW is partnering with USYD and UTS to tackle one of the most pressing challenges facing regional communities: drinking water resilience in New South Wales.

Participants will work on real-world water security challenges affecting councils such as Orange, Yass Valley and the Blue Mountains. From drought resilience and ageing infrastructure to PFAS contamination and climate-driven turbidity events, this year’s case is grounded in genuine regional pressures.

Teams will design innovative, practical and equitable solutions that help strengthen regional water systems contributing to safer, more resilient communities. Your ideas won’t just be theoretical; they are framed around real challenges faced by NSW water stakeholders and local councils.

🌊💧 This is your opportunity to help shape the future of drinking water security in NSW.
