Dear CEE students,

Grand Challenges Impact Lab (GCIL) is recruiting students for Study Abroad in India in Winter 2025. Please apply!

GCIL-India offers hands-on, project-based learning about Grand Challenges and social innovation. GCIL meets the CEE capstone requirement and the CEE 440 2cr Professional Practice class; remaining credits count as CEE technical electives.

Information:

GCIL includes a 1-credit Autumn-quarter course in Seattle, and a 10-week, 15-credit Winter-quarter course (January – March) in Bangalore, India.

The program cost is approximately $6,500. For many UW students, this is less expensive than if you stay in Seattle. UW Study Abroad offers substantial scholarships. If you have financial aid at UW, it generally applies to study abroad.

GCIL is open to junior and senior undergraduate students and graduate students from any discipline. Applications are due soon — in May (approximately May 15) via the UW Study Abroad website.
