Existing Student Chapters
EWRI student chapters have been established at 18 universities, with more chapters being started every year. EWRI student chapters are typically led by graduate students, as undergraduate EWRI student chapters are not permitted at schools with undergraduate ASCE student chapters. EWRI student chapters typically collaborate with ASCE student chapters and other student organizations at their institution for events. Consider starting an EWRI student chapter at your university!
