Ub Eeri Student Chapter

the ub student chapter of the earthquake engineering research institute (eeri) is headquartered at the department of civil, structural and environmental engineering at the university at buffalo, suny. ub-eeri is recognized as a special interest club by the graduate student association at ub. the mission of ub-eeri student chapter is to build a community of students and professionals. social activities are supported among the student chapter, bringing together students with similar career objectives and interests and thus allowing a space for lifelong friendships to form. networking events with engineering professionals can also bridge the gap between the ub-eeri student chapter and the greater eeri community. our goals include reaching out, beyond the research lab and classroom, to give back to our local community. finally, direct volunteer efforts that specifically use our talents as engineers, in addition to fundraising efforts, are undertaken to positively affect the community.
