EPICS?<\/em><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Project Fibonacci Foundation hosts an annual leadership and interdisciplinary Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math (STEAM) educational conference for local scholars ages 15-20.\u00a0 This year the Foundation has partnered with the Institute for Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) to host a community service challenge called EPICS \u2013 Engineering Projects in Community Service.\u00a0 Winners of the Challenge will be announced at the Project Fibonacci Conference in July.<\/p>\n<p>Post award, the selected teams will work with Project Fibonacci mentors to realize their EPICS vision.\u00a0 The local chapter of IEEE will provide up to $10,000 for materials required to develop their project.\u00a0 Working with their non-profit partner, the Scholars will deliver a working solution to the non-profit by the end of the calendar year.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_are_the_Scholars\"><\/span><strong><em>Who are the Scholars?<\/em><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Project Fibonacci Scholars are local high school and college students who are currently or have previously participated in a Project Fibonacci event such as a drone camp or the Project Fibonacci Conference.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_type_of_projects_has_EPICS_supported_in_the_past\"><\/span><strong><em>What type of projects has EPICS supported in the past?<\/em><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The EPICS in IEEE program connects engineering with community service in four categories of community improvement effort:<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Access and Abilities<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Access &amp; Abilities projects help enable adaptive services, clinics for those in need (such as children with disabilities), programs for adults and assistive technologies.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Example:<\/strong>\u00a0 Portable hand glove, equipped with text-to-speech technology, for 300 hearing-impaired students in Bangalore, India<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>Education and Outreach<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Education and Outreach projects strives to help young students discover the benefits of science, math, technology and engineering.\u00a0 Working with Project Fibonacci, the traditional STEM model is expanded to include the Arts \u2013 STEAM. Our STEAM cities of the future will incorporate new artistic endeavors using technology as part of, or to create, their art.\u00a0 Education and Outreach projects strive to stretch young students understanding and appreciation of STEAM.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Example:<\/strong>\u00a0 Mobile application to facilitate the gathering and distribution of food during natural disasters in Ohio.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Example:<\/strong>\u00a0 Mobile science lab for rural areas in Namibia<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>Environment<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Engineering and science are key solutions to answering environmental issues. In communities in every region around the world, environments change with the evolution of technology and the need for sustainability. Many projects concern themselves with new ways to create electricity and energy, recycling and the use of renewable energy sources. Through these projects, young students learn about the impact of environmental issues and how STEAM can be part of the solution.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Example:<\/strong>\u00a0 Wireless water flow meter network to support restoration of oyster beds in the Great Bay of Eastern New Hampshire in the United States<\/li>\n<li><strong>Example:<\/strong>\u00a0 Solar powered phone charger, Uganda<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>Human Services<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Human Services projects find connections between STEAM and the tremendous scope of community needs. This includes homelessness prevention, security, affordable housing, family and children agencies, neighborhood revitalization and local government. Even after an EPICS in IEEE project is complete, lasting impact continues to be felt through the local non-profit organization\u2019s involvement.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Example:<\/strong>\u00a0 Air quality sensors in Philadelphia in the United States to investigate asthma incidence among neighborhood residents<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_role_of_the_non-profit_partner_organization\"><\/span><strong><em>What is the role of the non-profit partner organization?<\/em><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The non-profit partner provides local individual(s) with hands-on experience who understand the problems the community faces.\u00a0 The non-profit partner is key to EPICS.\u00a0 Without the input of the local service organization, scholars are left imaging problems and solutions from afar.<\/p>\n<p>The non-profit partner will be engaged during the proposal development phase.\u00a0 During this phase scholars learn of the problems the non-profit encounters and propose potential solutions.\u00a0 Scholars will be provided access to Project Fibonacci coordinated interviews which will detail the non-profit partner and their challenges.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_non-profit_organizations_can_I_work_with\"><\/span><strong><em>What non-profit organizations can I work with?<\/em><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Scholars can work with any community service organization that is <strong><em>not<\/em><\/strong> a for profit business.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLFFp6x0p10fKChHR5x7EYjAqrnZlhA4-x\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">View<\/a> videos from six (6) participating organizations that have been contacted regarding the EPICS challenge.
