The summer 2015 Workshop Application is officially open! For two-weeks, you will have the opportunity to live and work on creating innovative solutions to problems facing our communities.
ImpactLabs is an initiative launched by students and graduates of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Harvard University in 2014. This year, we are joined by the Technology Innovation Labs (TIL) of Bells University, Ota, Nigeria. We bring varied expertise in engineering design, software, and biomedical engineering. During the 2015 summer camp, the participants will gain hands-on experience combining techniques in software and engineering design into real-life technology in health, agriculture and/or sanitation. These projects are expected to be of immediate impact and relevance to a community in Nigeria.

This year's program is scheduled to take place August 10-21, 2015 at Bells University, Ota, Ogun State. It is residential and free. Last year's program details can be found here.

Cost: FREE!
