If you have seen the [[Global Village Construction Set TED Talk]] - if you are curious about how you can get more involved in the Open Source Ecology project as a student - then read on.
 
We are looking for students in architecture, engineering, education, agricultural engineering, agriculture, design, interdisciplinary studies, integrated systems, multimedia, information architecture, information technology, social enterprise, appropriate technology, robotics, and many other areas.
 
hands-on internships and collaboration experiences with Open Source Ecology. Students have a great opportunity to undertake a meaningful project and help Open Source Ecology build open source blueprints for a civilization. There are several ways university students can get involved:
 
*Summer internships
*Alternative Break programs
*Capstone Projects
*
 
Students get involved in:
 
* Design, build and documentation of one of the tools of the [[Global Village Construction Set]] (or propose and build a new tool we hadn't thought of)
* Replicate one of the tools we have already designed, such as the [[LifeTrac]] tractor, or the [[Compressed Earth Block press]]
* Help us build the documentation, such as drafting CAD files for the GVCS tools
* Any other way you want to contribute!
 
==What we are expecting==
We are expecting commitment to results from your part. We are willing to help in all ways we can.
 
==How to start==
If you are interested in collaborating, please
* Fill out the [[Team Culturing]] survey, sharing what kind of people can help and in what of way
* Add your location to the [http://opensourceecology.crowdmap.com/reports/submit Crowdmap].
** As ''Report Title'' - write the name of your educational institution.
** As ''Category'' - choose "Educational Institution" and the categories corresponding to the planned collaboration.
** To the left of ''Find Location'' - enter your location.
* Post on the [http://forum.opensourceecology.org/categories/education Education Forum] explaining your area of study, what projects you are undertaking in university, and how you would like to collaborate.
* Send an email to opensourceecology (at) gmail (dot) com - to introduce yourself and how you would like to collaborate.

Dear Students, if you are looking for a different experience - this opportunity is for you. I have started the Open Source Ecology project in 2007, started our R&D center from raw land, built up basic infrastructure - and if the rate of progress continues, we can finish the entire Global Village Construction Set by the end of 2015.
 
To get there, this summer, we are doing the most ambitious and intensive buildout that the project has seen to date. We will be building additonal labs, housing, and other supporting infrastructure to take development to warp speed. We will be hosting about 3 dozen students over the summer.
 
We will break up into 3 groups of 12 to work on
