Engineers in Action - University of Toronto Chapter
The Engineers in Action University of Toronto Chapter, formerly Bridges to Prosperity, is a
group of students dedicated to raising awareness and making a positive impact on student and global life. Each year, we help bridge the gap of isolation in developing communities around the world by funding, designing, and constructing pedestrian footbridges for communities facing impassable obstacles. We provide infrastructure that enables isolated communities to access health care, education, and economic opportunities. So far, our chapter has completed footbridge projects in Guatemala, Bolivia, and eSwatini! On campus, we also work to enrich student life through educational events and speaker series, allowing students to apply their education in meaningful ways. This includes events such as bridge design, AutoCAD, and construction skills workshops, as well as our annual bridge design competition. If you would like to get involved, please feel free to contact us at eia.uoft@gmail.com or reach out to our Facebook and Instagram (@eia.uoft).
