EX-PAT IFMA ENGINEERS TELL US WHAT THEY THINK Morgan Bonnet IFMA 2006 Project manager, Hawaï Natural Energy Institute (USA) "After an experience in Germany with Siemens-VDO, I recently signed on with the Hawaii Natural Energy Institute as a researcher (hybrid vehicles). My International Year was an enormous benefit: better foreign language and communication skills, more self-confidence, concrete experience of the industrial world…" Bertrand Gineste IFMA 2000 Patent examiner, European Patent Office (Germany) "The International Year enabled me to embrace the cultural difference as an opportunity, rather than an obstacle, and to gain in humility. It also consolidated my linguistic, technical and personal skills." Student engineers from the 5 member institutions of the Clermont College of Engineering collaborate in student events which complement the more institutional programme, alternating conferences given by international guests, round tables, presentations by ex-pat IFMA graduates, international evening, photo exhibition, forum, sports, pub quiz, etc. 1 st job abroad 18% 17% 26% Contact: David TURNER Director of International Relations Tel: (+33) 473 28 80 68 E-mail: David.Turner@ifma.fr www.ifma.fr Arnaud (Brazil, UK) 2006 2007 2008
S T U D E N T L I F E Express your talents… …with the numerous IFMA student associations At IFMA, you can develop your organisational, management and communication talents with numerous clubs and associations, or simply through sports, cultural activities, charity work, technical pursuits, etc. SPORTS The Sports Office (BdS) manages IFMA student sports activities. As well as classic sports like football, rugby or basketball, Ifmanature enables students to try outdoor sports like climbing, hiking, snowshoe hiking, mountain biking, cycling, etc. Equipment is provided, and a qualified team is on hand for safe and exciting outdoor sports. MOTOR SPORT • IfmaKart participates, with its 2 go-karts and IFMA student drivers, in the Auvergne regional championship and organises the "Inkartades" qualifications for the final of the French university kart cup. IFMA students were French kart champions in 2008. • IRS (Ifma Rallye Sport) has a Citroën Saxo VTS, which it enters in regional rallies. • The members of TIM (Team Ifma Motoracing) assist two professional riders in the Supermotard championship with mechanical and technical support, and thus learn about the stress of competition and all the pre-race preparations. In addition, thanks to the recent acquisition of a race-prepared Honda CB-R 125, the team plans to enter two student engineers in the 125cc endurance championship. • Mécaction: with the help of a group of enthusiasts, IFMA students who are fans of old cars help to perpetuate our automotive heritage by renovating and exhibiting the club's vehicles. AIR, (IFMA Riders Association) is interested in all types of sports like skiing, snowboarding, skating, surfing, etc. AIR organises a ski week, surfing weekends and also regular skiing trips in the region. TIE (Inter-Schools Tournament) is the largest engineering student-organised sports tournament in Europe. A team from IFMA participates each year. GOOD CAUSES • With the Maroc’Ailes team IFMA students participate in the 4L Trophy, a rally across the Moroccan desert aboard a Renault 4, combining sport, adventure and solidarity. Solidarity, because the aim of the trophy is also for each team to transport a minimum of 50kg of school supplies and sports equipment for Moroccan children. • The SOUC (Clermont Students' International Solidarity) collects funds and obtains equipment to finance projects and raise student awareness of the problems of developing countries. • The aim of TEIC (Clermont Student Engineers' Telethon) is to collect money for the French Myopathy Association. The students organise a walk between Lyon and Clermont-Ferrand and various other fund-raising operations. • ACTIS comprises student engineers who want to transmit their passion for science and technology to primary and secondary school children. A whole range of mini-workshops are designed and built by the students every year for this purpose.
