Building Social Innovation and Sustainable Entrepreneurship Capacity through Integrated International Design Project Experiences and Increased Mobility of Students Between Colombia and the U.S.

Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), Universidad Autonoma de Occidente (UAO), and Corporación Universitaria Comfacauca (UniComfacauca) will establish a project-based engineering program to provide students with product development skills. RIT graduate students will work collaboratively with UAO and UniComfacauca students to design a product architecture proposal, build and test the design, then implement their final solution in Colombia.
