EPIC-N Call for Projects


The STWC Educational Partnership for Innovation in Communities-Network (EPIC-N) calls for projects from community stakeholders.

STWC EPIC-N is a community engagement-based program where university faculty and students work on multidisciplinary projects to solve community problems. Community organizations partner with a team from STWC to receive technical expertise to solve a community-identified problem that benefits society. The community partner will benefit from an average of 200 person-hours of work (estimated) by university faculty and students, from a range of disciplines, working to advance their initiative. The participating students will benefit from a mentored, applied learning experience while receiving academic credits.

The average cost of a project is $5,000 to $15,000 based on the scope of work. If you have a project in mind, please submit the following information via this website link:
