Global Health Design Collaboration

We are undergraduate and graduate students interested in engineering, medicine, and anthropology who work in design teams to address challenging global health issues. Our Mission is to apply user-centered design methods to contextualize and solve unmet health-care needs in low and middle income countries. We ultimately aim to make our solutions available to those in need.

Science and Human Rights Coalition

 

The CWRU Science and Human Rights Coalition (SHRC) is group of scientists and human rights activists dedicated to promoting the intersection of science and human rights and building a bridge of communication between our communities. The rights of scientists, our right to scientific progress, and science in the service of human rights all protect the basic dignity of humanity. The Coalition will provide an open forum for educating the community and working for the greater application of these rights through local and international activism and advocacy.

Center for Engineering Action - VentureWell Fellows Program

The goals of this pilot workshop are to provide guidance, mentorship and resources to student teams interested in sustainable design for low-resource communities. The inaugural cohort will work together, share ideas and ultimately apply to VentureWell to become Entrepreneurial Teams (E-Teams).
