Students & Young Engineers<br />
<strong>The</strong> 32 nd <strong>FISITA</strong> World Automotive Congress includes two special programmes for students <strong>and</strong> young engineers: the Student<br />
Congress <strong>and</strong> the Travelling Fellowship Programme.<br />
Students <strong>and</strong> young engineers have applied to participate in either programme <strong>and</strong> are going to present a technical paper at the<br />
congress. <strong>The</strong>se papers are marked with [SC] in the technical programme (see pages 25-47). <strong>The</strong> topics <strong>of</strong> the papers are the<br />
same as those for the main congress.<br />
<strong>FISITA</strong> Student Congress<br />
<strong>The</strong> Student Congress runs parallel to the main congress in<br />
room 11 <strong>and</strong> gives engineering students the opportunity to<br />
meet in a technical forum with their peers from all over the<br />
world. Students <strong>and</strong> young engineers are going to present<br />
<strong>and</strong> discuss their technical papers <strong>and</strong> also have the opportunity<br />
to attend the main congress including the Plenary<br />
Sessions, where they can meet with some <strong>of</strong> the world’s<br />
most influential engineers, designers <strong>and</strong> experts. Delegates<br />
attending the main congress are also able to attend the student<br />
presentations.<br />
