WelcomeDear IAESTE Friends andSupporters,Welcome to the 2003 IAESTEAnnual Review incorporating theGeneral Secretary’s Report.In recent years the IAESTE Annual Report included, in additionto the performance report on the IAESTE exchange, articleson IAESTE from members, employers and students, areport on the IAESTE Annual Conference and a brief introductionto the Association. Every other year (2001, 2003,etc.) the Report includes a list of the participating employersand educational institution for the previous two years. Theinclusion of all these topics has resulted in this annual publicationbeing more than an Annual Report hence the new title.The 2003 Annual Review shows the readers anAssociation concerned with its performance in the service ofstudents and employers. The General Secretary’s AnnualReport summarises the performance of the members and cooperatinginstitutions during the past exchange year. Thisperformance is compared in most case with progress from previousyears. The details are all here and, even in these tryingtimes, confirms IAESTE as an Association focused on its Aimsand the needs of employers and undergraduates.The IAESTE Aims are clear. They are to provide professionaldevelopment to students, to promote understanding ofother cultures and to achieve in close association with ouremployers, a quality experience for the student and theemployer while getting a job well done.2002 was an exceptional year for IAESTE. Our exchangebetween members and co-operating institution dropped forthe first time since 1995 below 5000. When we include theexchange with non-members (136 students from 9 non-membercountries) the exchange was 5053. The drop in numberswas anticipated but nevertheless disappointing. We understandthe difficulties being face by employers and we appreciatethe 3693 employers that provided the work placements in2002. This was a drop of 502 employers from 2001 andalmost mirrors the drop in the exchange. The number of educationalinstitutions participating increased slightly to 1336.The increase in the participating educational institutionscan be attributed to the increase in the number of new cooperatinginstitutions joining the Association. IAESTE currentlyhas 91 members and co-operating institutions in 83countries. The new co-operating institution joining IAESTEduring 2002 were from Bangladesh, India, Iran, Liechtensteinand Nigeria.Employers remain the corner stone of IAESTE activity andwe are pleased to be able to offer employers from Canada,Greece, Sweden and Uruguay the opportunity to air theirviews on the exchange in this year’s Review.I would like to thank all the contributors to this year’sReview.IAESTE looks forward to continuing our partnership withindustry, the universities and their students in the preparationand development of young engineers, scientists and other professionalsduring 2003.Finally, I would like to thank you all for your support overthe past 6 years. I complete my final term as IAESTEGeneral Secretary in January 2004. It has been a pleasureworking for IAESTE and with so many fine people throughoutthe world. IAESTE is truly an amazing Association.Founded 55 years ago, IAESTE is still working to provideopportunities for students and in our ever changing world itis clear that the ideals of work related to study in an environmentthat broadens understanding of cultural and otherdifferences must contribute to the development of skilled,tolerant and aware professionals.James E. Reid, General Secretary, IAESTEIAESTE Annual Review 2003 1

Our OrganisationThe International Association for the Exchange of Students forTechnical Experience (IAESTE) is a confederation of NationalCommittees representing academic, industrial and studentinterests. Each National Committee is responsible for theadministration of the exchange in its own country.The Association was founded inJanuary 1948 at Imperial College,London, on the initiative of theImperial College Vacation WorkCommittee. National organisations often European countries represented atthis meeting became members andMr. James Newby was electedGeneral Secretary. The geographicalcoverage was soon to spread to mostof Europe and beyond, as new countrieswere admitted to membership.The international body of IAESTEis a non-political, independent, nongovernmentalorganisation, in operationalrelationship with the UnitedNations Educational, Scientific andThe aims of IAESTECultural Organisation (UNESCO) andmaintaining consultative relationshipswith the UN Economic and SocialCouncil (ECOSOC), the UnitedNations Industrial DevelopmentOrganisation (UNIDO) and theInternational Labour Office (ILO).IAESTE is also in contact with theUnited Nations Economic Council forAfrica (ECA), the Food andAgriculture Organisation (FAO), theOrganisation of American States(OAS) and the European Union (EU),as well as with educational non-governmentalorganisations.National secretariats and committeesmake up the membership of theAssociation. Each year the AnnualConference brings together the representativesof these bodies to decideissues of general policy and with theIAESTE co-operating institutions tocarry out the exchange of offers forThe association is an organisation for the exchange ofstudents at institutions of higher education wishing to obtaintechnical experience abroad relative to their studies in thebroadest sense.training. Prior to the conference,each member and co-operating institutioncollects offers from employerswilling to receive students fromabroad for a temporary training andwork experience period relevant tothe students areas of study, as a complementto their university or collegeeducation. The offering companies ororganisations are expected to paystudents a wage sufficient to covertheir cost of living during the actualtraining period.The offers of training areexchanged with other members andco-operating institutions on a reciprocalbasis. Through their affiliateduniversities and colleges, membersand co-operating institutions selectqualified students to meet employers’requirements as outlined on thetraining offer. Details of the selectedcandidates are sent to the companiesfor approval.Participation in the IAESTEexchange is open to bona fide studentsattending courses at universities, institutesof technology and similar institutionsof high education.Readers are invited to learn moreabout IAESTE and the IAESTE membersby visiting our website atwww.iaeste.org.It shall promote international understanding and goodwillamongst the students of all nations irrespective of race, colour,sex or creed.The association operates an exchange programme for the benefitof students, academic institutions, industrial and other organisationsoffering traineeships.2 IAESTE Annual Review 2003

Itincludes detail on the exchange withnon-member countries. The reportalso contains a summary of theadministrative procedures, reportsfrom member and co-operating institutionson activity as well as thenames of the staff handling theexchange and the addresses of thenational secretariats.

Some 68.5% of all traineessent are from EU and other Europeancountries, and 71% of all trainees arereceived in Europe.Sending and receivingContinentThe EU provides 27% of its places tostudents from EU member states. Thisinternal exchange between the Rest ofEurope is 26% and with North andCentral America the figure is 22%while the internal exchange for theother regions is less than 6%. Thesmallest number of participating studentscomes from Africa and 90% ofAfrican students receive their placementsin Europe.The open international exchange isclearly illustrated by the number ofmembers and co-operating institutionsthat exchange with each other. In 2002each members and co-operating institutionexchanged on average with 17other members and co-operating institutions.The pie chart shows that almostFigure 1:Extent of theopen internationalexchangeTable 4: Trainees sent ✈ and received by continent 2002European Union MembersRest of EuropeAsia/AustraliaAfrica162 = 3.29%134 = 2.73%South America571 = 11.61%434 = 8.83%North and Central America464 = 9.44%537 = 12.29%351 = 7.14%321 = 6.53%Table 5: Receiving Continent, % ReceivedNorth and Central America60% of IAESTE members and co-operatinginstitutions participating in theexchange sent students to more than11 other members and co-operating34Rest of EuropeAsia/AustraliaAfricaSouth America526EU✈1442 = 29.33%1275 = 25.93%Rest ofEurope1927 = 39.19%2216 = 45.07%Asia/AustraliaAfricaNorth andCentralAmericaSouthAmericaEU 27.3 30.1 13.9 4.5 14.3 9.9152.4 25.8 7.3 2.4 6.5 5.665.8 20.5 5.6 1.4 5.1 1.666.7 23.5 4.9 0.6 3.1 1.248.7 19.2 3.4 0.6 22.0 6.062.7 23.1 1.1 0.9 8.8 3.4institutions.7 members and co-operating institutionssent students to 41 or morecountries.1 - 42.3% of members sent students to between1 and 10 other members and co-operating institutions2 - 25.6% of members sent students to between11 and 20 other members and co-operating institutions3 - 11.5% of members sent students to between21 and 30 other members and co-operating institutions4 - 11.5% of members sent students to between31 and 40 other members and co-operating institutions5 - 6.4% of members sent students to between41 and 50 other members and co-operating institutions6 - 2.6% of members sent students to more than50 other members and co-operating institutionsIAESTE Annual Review 2003 5

Report of the General SecretaryGrowth of IAESTE1999-2003A measure of the worldwide interestin IAESTE is reflected in the increasein the number of applicant co-operatinginstitutions committed to theIAESTE aims. Time is essential for thenew co-operating institutions to settleinto the IAESTE exchange and toestablish the quality of their servicewith the other members and co-operatinginstitutions. New co-operatinginstitutions take 3-5 years to becomeestablished and the benefits of thisexpansion, reflected in the exchange,becomes clear after this period.Table 6: Membership Growth1999 - 2003886573811999 2000 2001 2002 2003Full MembersAssociate MembersCo-operating Institutions91Since the 2002 Annual Report,IAESTE welcomed co-operating institutionsfrom Bangladesh, Iran (2),Nigeria, India and Liechtenstein. TheIAESTE membership in January 2003was 91 members and co-operatinginstitutions in 83 Countries.The growth of the Association isnow outside Europe with 24 of thepresent 34 co-operating institutionsbeing from other continents. Theexpansion of the IAESTE exchangeprogramme in Africa and Asia stillrequires attention and additional membersin South and Central Americawould also benefit the exchange. Anincreased intercontinental exchangedepends on increasing the membershipof the Association in these continentsand remains a priority for IAESTE.Reciprocity of theExchangeThe IAESTE exchange programme isbased on a bilateral balanced exchangebetween members. Most membercountries attempt to maintain a balancebetween outgoing and incomingstudents but an exact bilateral balanceis rarely possible within any given year.Only long-term balance is sought. Thisflexibility is needed to support theproper allocation of places and theselection of the appropriate students.In 2002, 21 members and co-operatinginstitutions received more studentsthan they send abroad and thisbenefited 49 other members and cooperatinginstitutions. This imbalancewas between 1 and 5 students for 20members. In total, 749 work experienceplaces were involved or 15% ofthe total exchange.Within the tradition of IAESTE it ismembers with higher Gross NationalIncome per capita (GNI) that receivemore trainees than they send. Most ofthose who benefit are newer co-operatinginstitutions, members in developingcountries and members from the smallercountries. Countries with a GNI percapita >12,000 US$ provided 92% ofthese places in 2002.Profile of the studenttraineeGender balance and Age: Age and genderbalance of trainees varies little fromyear to year but differs appreciablyfrom country to country.Table 7: Gender balance200220012000199919921998 1999 2000 2001 2002Engineering 65 67 67 63 67Sciences 15 15 16 17 16Applied Arts 6 7 8 8 8MenWomenParticipation by men and womenstudents compared with previous years(%) is shown in Table 7.The percentage for individual membersor co-operating institutions variesfrom 0% to 67%. The gender balancerelates to the cultural and educationaltraditions in the IAESTE countries. InEurope and North America the figuresreflect the available information on theenrollment of women in engineeringand technical studies.The age of trainees in 2002 rangedfrom 20 to 30 years with the majority(90%) being 20 to 24 years old. Theaverage age is just over 22 years old.Study fields: As usual, the majorityof trainees (67%) are students in engineeringand related technologies. Theremaining 33% are divided betweenthe sciences, 16%; applied arts, 8%;agriculture, 3% and other fields ofstudy, 6%. These figures are quite stableand change only by a few percentagepoints from one year to the next.Table 8:Training Specialties (%),based ontrainees received1998-2002Source:IAESTE Activity Reports1998-2002Agriculture 4 5 4 4 3Others 10 6 6 966 IAESTE Annual Review 2003

Report of the General SecretaryCategories of OffersIAESTE classifies traineeships into the following categories:● Research and Development (D) – laboratory type work● Professional (P) – professional activities, practical design work and similar● Working environment (W) – work in the industrial area relevant for the student’s background● Category (X) – covers non-specific offers, including general office jobs, language offers andsimilar. In all cases the receiving national office making (X) category offers must ensure that theworking conditions are acceptable, beneficial to the student and in line with the standardsexpected of all IAESTE offers.2002 Training placesPlaces available (Total 6562)Places usedD 41.12% D 69.98%P 54.59% P 73.28%W 3.70% W 82.72%X 0.59% X 48.72%The bulk of the offers are in the Research and Development and Professional areas; studentsfavour these training places which are more in line with academic requirements. In manyinstances such training is a required part of the curriculum. The Working Environment (W) offersare valued for higher pay and the opportunities they provide to experience working conditions inindustry in other countries. The total numbers of (W) offers available are small and the take-upby the students is the highest at almost 83%. There are very few non-specific offers (X) and theyhave the lowest take-up at less than 49%.Returned offers andcancellationsThis continues to be one of our majorproblems areas. Despite the effortsmade to date to minimize losses thenumber of training places lost orunused remains unacceptably high.Based on the figures reported, thenumber of lost and unused trainingoffers in 2002 amounted to 1990, justover 30% of the offers received.Employer withdrawals accounted for47% and student withdrawals were21%. The balance was unused (32%).Cancellation of offers by students’remained almost unchanged from2001.Individual figures show that 14members and co-operating institutionsmanage to maintain their total lossesbelow 20%.IAESTE members must continue tomake every effort to minimise theselosses, particularly the offers thatremain unused. Improvements herewould result in the release of additionalavailable places. This should encouragemembers to seek improvements totheir existing practices and to examinetheir communication arrangements.Accurate and timely communicationsshould help reduce student andemployer withdrawals and accuratematching of the student skills withthose required by the employer wouldfurther contribute to minimising thewithdrawal of offers by employers.The year round exchange facilitatedby IAESTE IntraWeb now provides theplatform for the quick and accurateexchange of jobs between members fornew and unused offers and also nominationsfor these places. This must contributeto the effective use of all offersboth new and unused, as they becomeavailable throughout the year.Seminar on IAESTEDevelopment (SID), InternetDevelopment Team and theFriends of IAESTE NetworkThe 18th SID took place from the 25-27 April 2003 is Skopje, hosted byIAESTE Macedonia. 57 representativesattended the Seminar from 18 IAESTEcountries. The working groups concentratedon the areas of Administration,IntraWeb Usability, Marketing,Strategic Development and the preparationof a hosting guide for employers.Completed tasks are referred to theIAESTE Advisory Committee for commentbefore presentation to theIAESTE General Conference for furtherdiscussion and / or adoption.During the year we saw the launchof our new public pages and theimprovements and enhancement of theIAESTE IntraWeb continues. Our publicpages were visited on more than140,000 occasions during 2002. Thiswork will continue during 2003 andfurther advances in the flexibility ofthese services to members and co-operatinginstitutions are in preparation.The Friends of IAESTE Network iscompletely operational, see displaypage in this Annual Review.These activities are co-ordinated byPauline Ferguson (Northern Ireland),Kim Jensen (Denmark) and TobiasWittmann (Germany) ●Congratulations toIAESTE Canada,Celebrating 50 yearsof membership of IAESTEin 20038 IAESTE Annual Review 2003

Exchange ProfilesFROM CANADATO FINLAND AND BEYOND:ASTUDENT’S ODYSSEYBy Jonathan Polak,University of TorontoI began my studies at the University ofToronto in September, 1999. I studied Pre-Medicine for one year and then transferredto Electrical Engineering with the ambitionto study Biomedical Engineering at a graduate level. Ibecame interested in study and work abroad opportunitiesafter my second year in engineering. In Canada, engineeringis considered a professional degree and academic exchangesare rarely possible because of specific course and degreerequirements set out by the University of Toronto.Because of this, I decided to pursue a work exchangeinstead. IAESTE Canada not only found me a job related tomy specialty overseas, but they also took care of living accommodations,working visas, and most importantly, connectedme to the IAESTE welcoming committee in Finland. Thewelcoming committee (headed by Juho-Matti Karpale) wasfantastically organized – it had activities three or more timesper week. My favourite weekly activity was ‘Sports and Sauna’on Thursdays. The foreign students would get together onthe field outside the Kirjasto (library) at TeknilinenKorkeakoulu (HUT) to play Ultimate Frisbee, and Football.After the game, we headed to a sauna that was reserved forIAESTE where we gathered to chat and re-hydrate withkarhu and cider. The IAESTE welcoming committee alsoplanned large organized trips to St-Petersburg, Sweden,Lapland, Porvo, Åland, Turku, Tallin and other regionalattractions nearly every week.In addition to the social events for foreigners organized byIAESTE, I became friends with other Finns and joined clubslike Teepaki (The Finnish Scouts) with whom I went campingand kayaking during Juhanus. I joined other Teekari (engineers)at the annual Hanko Regatta aboard a 9m sailboatnamed Trip Tease. I was posted as a deck hand, where I hadto learn some Finnish sailing jargon in a hurry so that I couldduck under the mast whenever we turned!My work at the Helsinki University of Technology wasextraordinarily rewarding. I worked with other Finnishresearchers in the Power Electronics Laboratory to accuratelysimulate the operation of inverter-fed induction drives. I wasminimally supervised, which allowed me freedom to choosehow I wanted to fulfil my responsibilities. The immenseamount of responsibility and trust given to me made thisexperience particularly valuable and I believe I made a made aworthwhile contribution to the research program.I was very impressed with the other IAESTE trainees I metduring my stay in Helsinki. They were all committed todoing a good job for their employer and wanted to leave afavourable impression of students from their country.I found Finland to be one of the most important developmentalexperiences of my life. The first thing I learned is notto believe everything you read in the Lonely Planet guides.The Finns I met were friendly, open and expressive people.Tytti Lepistö, a 21 year-old Finn from Helsinki (kätilöopisto,July 2nd) taught me the value of expressing oneself honestly.She helped me learn one of the most valuable lessons thatcould be learned from living and working abroad: “The sameonly different.” Meaning, all of earth’s inhabitants are different,we speak different languages, eat different foods, havedifferent customs and traditions; but ultimately, we all aspireto the same values of happiness, acceptance and love.IAESTE has changed my outlook on the world. When Ireturned to Canada, I transferred to the joint MBA /Electrical Engineering programme offered through theFaculty of Applied Science and the Rotman School ofManagement. Since then, I have been working to establishgreater Canadian participation in IAESTE. In September2002, the Embassy of Finland invited me to speak about myexperience as a trainee at an event called ‘Why Finland’ heldin Ottawa. The conference was sponsored by CIMO (Centrefor International Mobility) to promote Finnish academic studyand exchange to Canadians. There I learned that Finnish studentshave many opportunities to work abroad since theFinnish government makes a serious financial commitment tothe programs. After hearing this news I became aware thatthe Canadian government has no such initiative and I beganto work at the University of Toronto to mimic the Finnish initiativeat a university level. I wrote a proposal, highlightingbenefits U of T students can attain from acquiring a globalunderstanding of the engineering field. U of T is now committedto closer ties with IAESTE and we are continuallyworking on furthering our collaboration.I hope to continue to promote the IAESTE program, bothin Canada and abroad, so that we can provide more Canadianstudents with the opportunity to participate. ●SUPPORTING THE INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCEBy Poul Laursen, InvoDaneInvoDane Engineering has found that tappinginto the IAESTE network helps enrichthe cultural diversity of its Canadian basedorganization and creates “ambassadors” forthe company around the world. For the students,the benefits are many, such as exposureto cross disciplines of engineering withinan informal and democratic environment – and the joys ofdiscovering a new mix of culture and landscape.IAESTE Annual Review 2003 11

Exchange ProfilesThis world leading enterprise is situated in Toronto, Canada’slargest city and has employed IAESTE students for many years.InvoDane Engineering follows a very highly organized andsystematic approach to analyzing and solving problems. Thetraineeship program functions very well within the InvoDaneorganization.We receive trainees in fields related to mechanical, electricaland software engineering. Their training is often integrated withtheir graduate and school studies. "When it comes to foreignstudents, IAESTE trainees are always InvoDane Engineering’sfirst choice", says Paul Laursen, President of the company.I believe that working with the IAESTE organization and thepeople within its network has clear advantages for employerslike InvoDane Engineering. IAESTE has a network of contacts,which is very well established both in Canada and internationally,and administrative procedures are reduced to an absoluteminimum. An additional advantage is that IAESTE trainees canstay for a longer period of time then other internships, which canbe of great value for both student and the company.IAESTE trainees that we have employed have been verycompetent, enthusiastic, energetic, eager to learn and cooperatewell with InvoDane’s employees. They become a stimulusfor our employees and help spread knowledge about othercountries and cultures.Martin Hynes of Ireland was one of the IAESTE traineesat InvoDane Engineering in the year 2002. As an example,Martin undertook a large variety of projects during the timehe was on his exchange. Initially he was part of the teamdeveloping a portable data module for Non-destructive test ofpipelines. Later in his work term he undertook developingpart of an internal information system.I strongly believe that other enterprises should useIAESTE in order to open up the world to students. ●EGYPT: AN EXPERIENCE TO BE SAVOUREDBy Professor Dr Ahmed El-Sheikh, Cairo UniversityEgypt joined IAESTE in 1961 and become a full member in1965. It is represented by a National Committee situated at theFaculty of Engineering, Cairo University and a Local Committeesituated at the Faculty of Engineering, Alexandria University.IAESTE/EGYPT approaches the exchange in an inclusiveway. The offers arising from the exchange each January aredistributed among the national and private higher educationalinstitutions on a quota basis taking sometimes in considerationthe non-repetitive study fields characterizing certainschools. In Egypt there are 12 participating institutions. Theaverage number of offers per institution is about 7.In 2002 a total of 25 Egyptian employers participated inthe exchange programme. We are grateful for the great levelof support from two of our employers. The Egyptian Iron andSteel Co. that offers about 25 opportunities every year inengineering and related technologies and the ArabContractors Co. that participates with 15 offers in Civil andArchitecture engineering. On average the rest of the employersoffer 2 or 3 training opportunities.Our service to the incoming students reflects the care and anawareness of the importance of first impressions on persons visitingour country for the first time. The students are met upontheir arrival at Cairo airport by IAESTE team, accommodationis arranged by IAESTE national and local committees at Cairoand Alexandria University hostels. The accommodations for thestudents having their training in other locations (such as upperEgypt or Red Sea oil fields) are arranged by the employers.Though practical work experience is the primary purpose ofthe exchange, we also see it as essential for any students visitingEgypt that they have the opportunity to sample and experienceour long, colourful and impressive culture. To support thisessential learning experience the National IAESTE officearranges a weekly afternoon meeting for the incoming studentsto get together, to get to know each other and their Egyptiancounterparts. A special and much appreciated feature of thesemeetings is the organized phone connection that allows the studentsattending the meetings to receive phone calls from theirfamilies (a special line is arranged for this purpose). The studentsalso discuss with the national secretary and his assistantsthe resolution of any problems they may be facing during theirstay in Egypt. Free Internet facilities are arranged at our computercenter for 2-3 hours daily in the afternoons.Our arranged sight-seeing programmes and short tourshappen at least 3 times a week to such national treasures asthe Pyramids, the Sphinx sound and light show, Khan El-Khalily, Sakkara, the Citadel, the Egyptian Museum, oldEgypt and much more.In addition, we have an agreement with all employers togive the trainees a paid week off during their training period.During this week we organize long trips (for 4-5 days) toLuxor and/or Sharm El-Sheikh depending on the studentsinterest. Most of them join this trip due to its very reasonablecost though a few of prefer to go by themselves after finishingtheir training. We have illustrating this brief introduction toIAESTE Egypt at work with some of the students’ own photographstaken during what they describe themselves as theirunforgettable time of learning at work and in a country richin a past that is splendid, technically advanced, a challenge totheir understanding and an enriching cultural experience.IAESTE Egypt is waiting to enrich more IAESTE students inthe coming years. ●Inside a tunnel 30m under the greatest Khofu Pyramid12 IAESTE Annual Review 2003

GREECE:STUDENT PRACTICAL TRAINING AT ASPROFOSENGINEERING S.A.By S. V. Spiliopoulos, Assistant to the EngineeringManager of ASPROFOS ENGINEERINGIn the framework of globalization, no matter how small thesize of a company, the merits stemming from the interminglingof professionals from different cultural backgrounds, areprofound and highly rewarding. One method of putting professionalstogether, teaming them up and having them workin an inter-exchange mode is the practical training providedto students. The resulting interaction is a reversible process,that is to say, not only do students learn, but the companybenefits as well from having the students demonstrate withinthe course of the assignments delivered new methods, tools,procedures e.t.c taught at the university level.Through the student practical training programs, - andhere, we ought to give emphasis to those programs adhered toby specific high standards – we become acquainted with thenew areas of disciplines enforced into the university curriculaand syllabuses. We sense that what was taught a decade ago isnot sufficient to bestow the new students with skills required toperform an ever increasing and ever demanding task, especiallyin the engineering field and in the area of modern issues andtechniques applied in modern management.Having realized the importance as well as the value of theissue, Asprofos has over the years extended summer positionsto international students wishing to acquire practical trainingwithin the Asprofos Engineering environment. IAESTE(International Association for the Exchange of Students forTechnical Experience) constitutes the vehicle through whichinternational students who have demonstrated an exemplaryperformance during their studies may approach Asprofos. It isthrough IAESTE’s cooperation that Asprofos had had thechance to provide summer practical training to a considerablenumber of international students of many nationalities such asAustrian, Belgian, British, Dutch, French, Finnish, German,Hungarian, Irish, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish, and Swiss inthe course of the recent past (1997 – 2002). In view of theirvaluable help extended ever since our first encounter, weapplaud their effort in providing students in the upper echelonof their classes and we look forward to cooperating withthem in the years to come.Asprofos Engineering is the leader engineering firm inGreece, size-wise, technologically advanced and organizationallystructured (more than 400 employees comprising 300+ engineersand scientists). With an ever increasing participation inbuilding up the energy related industrial environment of modernGreece, having played a key role in the modernization projectof the Aspropyrgos Hellenic Refinery, one of the mostadvanced in the southern Mediterranean area, and having successfullycompleted not only the design but also the constructionsupervision of a 500 km main natural gas pipeline, withbranches amounting to about 500 km, as well as the associatedLiquefied Natural Gas storage terminal facilities, we havereached a point at which we feel our duty to pass on to quali-Typical refinery unit: Isomerizationfied engineers who are ready to enter the professional environmentand contribute to the world community, all of the highcaliber know-how presently available in-house.Our observations have helped us come to the conclusionthat best results are attained with engineering students whohave already acquired a mastery of the fundamentals as well asthe more complex engineering issues and therefore we tend togive preference to senior engineering students close to graduation.In a continuous effort to establish a highly efficient,methodical and optimal training program we are summarizingour ideal practical training envisions in the sections below.As an interlude to what follows, note that studentsenrolled in practical training should be put “on the job” asearly as possible, since the sage “practice makes perfect” iswidely applied in all of Asprofos Engineering disciplines. Thisshort-range target is closely abided by all higher rank personnel,regardless of the detriment imposed by a short studenttrainingperiod (in our case two months).Student practical training must:Be relevant - The training provided to students must be applicableand practical for the expected performance actuallyneeded, used or anticipated. It must be realistic and related toevery possible related engineering issue that the time schedulepermits.Be Standardized - Training standards should be established forall subjects being taught to promote consistency. Written outlines,lesson plans and exercises are needed for continuity ofeducation from person to person and generation to generation.Constant review and updating is required.Have Clear Objectives - The learning objectives must clearlydefine what the student will learn in each area of trainingincluding performance, standard figures and conditions.Performance - The skill or knowledge the student mustdemonstrate.Standard figures - The level of skill or knowledge to whichthe student (and every other employee) is compared to.Conditions - The conditions and givens under which thestudent must perform.Be Active - Participation by the student in practical applicationsis one of the best learning environments for adults.Actual demonstration by the student of the learned skills con-IAESTE Annual Review 2003 13

Exchange Profilesfirms that the student has actually grasped the concepts beingtaught. Active participation by students helps to avoid boredom,inattention and distractions. The old adage “we learn bydoing” is still very much alive.Be Fun - If the student has fun learning new information andskills (s)he will be anxious to return for further training and/orto pursue additional outside training on their own. The studentwill be much more likely to tell others about the trainingand encourage others to attend future sessions.Be Documented - Documentation of training objectives, informationand student participation helps generate a basis forfuture reference. Practical and written testing confirms thatnecessary information was transferred to the student, thus theproper basis is set to deliver higher and more complex responsibilitiesand assignments to the student. Keep complete,accurate records. Give the students credit for completed trainingcourses. Issue certificates when appropriate.The bottom line is that we must train for eventual engineeringactivity. Successful training programs are those programs,which meticulously and diligently adhere in a seriousand methodical manner to the following sequential steps:1. STUDENT SELECTION2. STUDENT RECEPTION3. STUDENT TRAINING SET-UP4. ON-THE-JOB TRAINING5. TRAINING ASSISTANCE/CONSULTANCY6. STUDENT EVALUATION7. STUDENT DEPARTUREStudent training must be viewed, planned, felt and tackled asa contribution. A meaningful contribution is a contributionresulting in repercussion; the higher its vibration, the moremeaningful the contribution to our students, to ourselves, toour companies – and to the society at large. ●HUNGARY:THE FIRST 20 YEARS, 1983 - 2003By Gabriella Rácz – IAESTE Hungary2003 marks the 20th anniversary of the establishment of theIAESTE exchange program in Hungary. Every summer awell-organized Hungarian team welcomes trainees from allparts of the globe. These past 20 years can be divided intotwo ten-year periods, because in 1991 students took overleadership from their professors by founding IAESTEHungary – Hungarian Association of Engineering Students.Foundation and consolidation: The founder of IAESTEHungary was György Kobelrausch, who is still closely associatedwith the group. According to the "legend",he was courting a lady from AIESECat the Budapest University of EconomicSciences and Public Administration, socame the idea along that if there wasAIESEC in Hungary in Economics, thereDr László Beckershould be a sister organization for the engineeringstudents. At the GeneralConference in 1983 in Vienna the Hungarian delegation waspresent already.The other founders were Péter Rácz and László Becker, thelatter of the two acted as National Secretary from the secondyear until 1990, when the student board stood up. The threeof them took care of the exchanges and filled out the first O-forms. The "old men" have been helping us ever since; Mr.Becker was, for instance, a member of the AdvisoryCommittee for four years.In January 1987 the General Conference was held inBudapest. This was a great breakthrough for IAESTEHungary, as well as for the country. The political climate wasnot favourable for international events, especially those, inwhich non-communist countries also participated. Still, in the80s the number of Local Committees multiplied – followingthe Budapest University of Technology and Economics, theUniversity of Miskolc, the University of Horticulture andFood Industry and the Donát Bánki Academy of Engineeringall set up their own committees. After the General Conferencein 1987 our results improved much, the number of exchangesexceeded 100. In 1989 we established WGSP (WorkingGroups on Student Participation), from which SID (Seminaron IAESTE Development) grew out later. After the politicalchanges new laws came into rule, IAESTE Hungary becamean association.The next 10 years: Current structure and student programs:As we bring the most engineering students inHungary together, we are responsible for the next generationof engineers. We have had 40 national conferences, 20 generalconferences, many SIDs, CECs (Central EuropeanConvention), Jump motivation seminars and several otherprofessional events and programs. Nowadays we have almost300 members in 19 local committees in 9 cities of Hungary.The increasingly influential board consists of the president,who is also the National Secretary and 3 vice presidents (onefor the exchange, one for finances and one for all). The 5-member Advisory Committee (Mr. Becker is the co-president)and the 3-member Monitoring Committee (liable for ouraccurate operation) are also part of the administration.Hungarian IAESTE Development meetings make the communicationmore efficient between the board and the localcommittees.Our aim is to provide the students as much professionalexperience and knowledge as possible, and since we are thebridge between the education and the profession, we havebeen organizing not only the exchange program, but also professionalconferences, exhibitions, competitions, job-fairs andjob-hunts for graduates.Exchange in the 80s: Offers were mostly by universities, asdeans were able to arrange payment for the trainees.14 IAESTE Annual Review 2003

Company offers were few and came through personal contactsonly. Due to the lack of international connections we had tostart everything anew, for example the summer reception program,and that was true in regard of everything else, as, forexample, even the allocation of summer hostel space, wherethe trainees were put up, was, and still is, centralized by thegovernment. Unfortunately, at that time nobody could meetthe trainees at the airport or stations, but in the SummerReception Office (15th June-15th September) there wasalways a coordinator assisting them. The tradition of theThursday-night national parties, where everybody could introducetheir own country started back then, too.Exchange in the 90’s: The 6 to 8-week positions, whichprovide a decent salary, are acquired with the help of the companyexchange guide. Recently offers have come mostly fromcompanies rather than universities.Nowadays a trainee is received at the airport or at the stationeven in the countryside. Furthermore they are taken to theirworkplace and helped by the small booklet, the Trainees’ Guide.We still have the Summer Reception Office (1st July-31stAugust) in Budapest (in one central youth hostel), and companiesall over the country help us find the accommodation. Before andafter the Summer Office we provide a central accommodation,too. During the operation of the Summer Office the coordinatorlives in the hostel together with the trainees. Beside theThursday-night parties another tradition has begun. There areseveral international weekends around Central Europe. Since visasdo not prove a problem for travel anymore, each country organizesa weekend in the summer time.The jubilee: We celebrate the jubilee with quite a fewevents. The main event was the Jubilee Ball on 1st March2003, where Monika Kümmel represented the leadership ofthe international IAESTE. Our oldies helped us to find sponsorsand media contacts for this great birthday party.The video about IAESTE Hungary was premiered at theball. The extended English version will be presented at theGeneral Conference in 2004 in Vienna. There is also a yearbookand a CD in English in progress. They will contain thehistory of IAESTE Hungary with statistics, photos, videos andsome extra – e.g.: story of the logo of IAESTE Hungary. ●The IAESTE Hungary Annual General AssemblyIRAN : INTRODUCING ANEW MEMBERBy Dr. Mohammad Shekarchizadeh, AssistantProfessor of Civil engineering at the University ofTehran and the person in charge of IAESTE at theUniversity of TehranAn ancient country, a cradle of art and civilization with abright and long historical background has entered theInternational Association for the Exchange of Students forTechnical Experience. In this regard, I am really happy andproud to introduce my country, IRAN as this new member ofIAESTE. The University of Tehran (UT), the most recognized(left to right):Professor Parviz Jabedar Maralani,Dr Mohammad Shekarchizadeh,Rouhollah Alizadehacademic center in Iran was accepted as a Co-operatingInstitution by the IAESTE Advisory Committee. This admissionin Poland, in July 2002 brought great honor and pride toall our universities, professors, academic centers, and especiallystudents. We started with great motivation, concentrating ourefforts on establishing IAESTE at the University of Tehransuccessfully during the first year. Now we look hopefully to abrighter future for IAESTE in Iran.The first steps for becoming part of this international associationwere taken by the University of Tehran, the establishmentof which goes back to 1934. Gradually, other universitiessuch as Amir Kabir Technical University, TarbiatModarres University (TMU), Iran University of Science andTechnology, and KNT University of Technology wereinvolved in the program and helped us a great deal. In thisway, we invited the representatives of these universities tomake a Scientific Committee. There is also another committeein IAESTE at the University of Tehran, being organized mainlyby some volunteer students and the representative of industryand companies. The latter is the Executive Committee,With the help and great efforts of the members of which, wecould have an acceptable start in organization, collection ofthe students' initial nomination forms, collection of the "o"forms from companies and academic institutions, and amongour many other various activities we can refer to our website,which was constructed in a short time, and we were successfulenough to provide students, universities and companies withthe required information.Fortunately, we were encountered by the support andhelp of many companies in Iran, not only willing to participatein the IAESTE exchange program by supporting usIAESTE Annual Review 2003 15

Exchange ProfilesHome of the new IAESTE Co-operating Institutionand providing us with offers in different fields, but alsoenthusiastic to employ the young foreign students with firsthandand new skills. As far as the IAESTE activities are concerned,we consider two main points for the continuation ofour work. First, seeking technical experience in an internationallevel, and second being involved in cultural experiencesand activities in a global scale. The opportunity givento each student will open new doors of experience for learningabout the new cultures and technology in other countries.The IAESTE will give Iranian students a great opportunityto practice what they have learned in a new place.The result of such an experience will be the development ofthe student’s skills and abilities and this provides the societywith the main benefits. Besides, they can compare theirknowledge and understanding with others of their own agewho live in other lands, and this kind of international workprovides us with new viewpoints and ideas. So we can behopeful for further improvements in the scientific aspects inour country.The students willing to come to Iran, will have the opportunityof working in a friendly place with hospitable people.They will learn many new points about the culture, and art ofthis ancient land. Acquaintance with the history of Iran isreally enjoyable through the old illustrations of the previouspeople of this land in a variety of artwork, and architecturewhich can be found in its different cities. Thus, all foreign studentsare welcomed in Iran, and we hope that their travel be amemorable and enjoyable one.I suppose that cooperation in such an international levelwould play an important role to increase the internationalunderstanding of the young generation of the world aswell as giving true insight about different countries tothem.Considering all our great activities in the first year of ourparticipation in the IAESTE, it must be mentioned that wecould collect a respectable number of offers in various fieldssuch as Electrical and Computer engineering, civil engineering,mechanical engineering, metallurgy, agriculture, chemicalengineering, mining, and biochemistry. Thanks to thesupport of universities, companies, and academic centers thenumber of these offers came to 20, 17 of which was16 IAESTE Annual Review 2003exchanged during the GC2003 sessions. We could bring 18offers to our country and at the moment we are busy nominatingthe most appropriate students for them. We alsohope to increase the Iran's exchange number in the future.We try to concentrate our main efforts on improving theIAESTE program so that we can develop the present stateto a better future. However, our main objective is toimprove the committees' work and therefore to make anincrease in the exchange of knowledge, culture, experience,viewpoints, and technology with other countries.Besides, I would like to express my sincere thanks to Mr.James Reid, the General Secretary IAESTE, who was our primaryhelp and great guide since we started our work and duringthe conference sessions. Here I would like to mention Dr.Masoud Motavalli who informed us of IAESTE Internationaland helped us and accepted the first student in empa. Also, Iwould like to thank IAESTE Switzerland, with which westarted our first exchange. Thanks also to IAESTE Thailandfor their great organization of GC2003, the enjoyable memoryof which will always be with us as our first year of participation.We look forward to increase our international relationshipwith all the members of IAESTE. ●MONGOLIA: AJOURNEY OF DISCOVERYBy Vukelija Liljiana, student at the ETH Zurich,SwitzerlandWhen I first applied for an internship abroad, the mostimportant thing to me was to go to a place I didn’t knowmuch about. On the list of offers there was a job in Darkhan,Mongolia, and since I didn’t even know whether this city isthe capital of that Dschingis-Khan-Country or not, I decidedto find out more. Several months later, during the coldestwinter time (January with –25 degrees!), I found myself inDarkhan. By that time I’ve read anything I could find aboutMongolia (not that much, unfortunately) and I knew thatDarkhan is not the capital of Mongolia.However, Darkhan is the second biggest city in Mongolia.It has a technology school with wonderful and helping teachers,and interested and nice students. Being a computer sciencestudent in Zurich, I’m teaching “Artificial Intelligence”to fourth-grade students here and it’s really fun! I’ve neverbeen a teacher before, and only now do I realize how muchpreparation time it needs. You must be absolutely sure aboutanything you say during the lesson, because students findeven the smallest inconsistency. I must say that my knowledgeof “Artificial Intelligence” improved significantly sinceI’m here!Besides the increase in my knowledge, I also saw manywonderful habits which definitely changed me. I saw that itisn’t necessary to rush around and get annoyed by little thingslike a not working printer. If it doesn’t work today, it will worktomorrow. And instead of printing everything, you can findother ways of distributing material. For example, after a while Iwas giving lots of materials to my students in electronic form:everybody has a floppy disk and there are many computers in

the school, so everyone gets the necessary information. In addition,no paper is used, either! So, an increase in my ‘innovativity’is notable.I also got some habits here which won’t be appreciatedmuch when I come back home. One is being late. After theykept me waiting several times (not on purpose, of course, it justhappens), I just don’t pay much attention to the time, either.So, now, it’s pretty normal for me to be late. This is a part ofnot rushing around, actually. On the other side, the sameMongolians who are always late, are also always very helpfuland work on a problem, until a solution is found. And theirsolutions are so unusual to me, but surprisingly well working!Another bad habit I got here is eating meat. The meathere is truly delicious and I really love it! In Switzerland Inever eat so much meat, because it just doesn’t taste good.But here, a day without meat is a bad day. It did take sometime though, to learn to buy and cut meat, because all theysell is at least half of an animal. Later, I learned that I can askfor 500g of meat, but every time I come the sales lady has alittle smile on her face, because I’m probably the only onewho buys that little. I also learned that blood on the meat issomething completely normal and not harmful at all whenyou touch it (when cutting the meat).During the winter time, I didn’t do many things, because itwas really cold, and I was happy to stay inside. But, once thespring came, I started discovering how beautiful this country is.IAESTE organized for me (since I’m the only ‘tough’ studentwho was brave enough to come so early to Mongolia ) wonderfultrips to UB and its surroundings. The museums of UB showin a beautiful way the “history of the steppes”: from thedinosaurs, over Dschingis Khan, Buddhism and socialism tomodern times. What is most impressive in this country, however,is its landscapes. It seems a never-ending place to me.Everything is so wide, open and free. And so many animals.Cows, sheep, horses, marmots. No need for a zoo. Nature iseverywhere! I don’t know what else to say about the countryside– you have to come and see it with your own eyes.Soon, the semester will finish, and my school’s stuff promisedto take me to some other beautiful places of Mongolia.I’m really looking forward to it!In conclusion, I must say that the few forms I had to fill into come with IAESTE really did pay off – it’s the experienceof my life (until now). ●Vukelija Liljiana (right) taking advice on the steppesPORTUGAL: 50 YEARS OF PROGRESSBy Professor Dr Bernardo Jerosch Herold,National Secretary, IAESTE PortugalIn January 2004 it will be 50 years that Portugal becameAssociate Member of IAESTE at the General Conference inVienna. The Portuguese Delegate Prof. Corrêa de Barros, fromthe Engineering Faculty of Porto University had been appointed1970 Advisory Committe Meeting: (left to right)Prof Bernardo Herold, Dr Klaus Wynekin, James Newby(IAESTE founder), Rolf Kratochwill, Karl Koechleby the Portuguese Ministry of Education to chair the “ComissãoPortuguesa da IAESTE” at “Instituto de Alta Cultura” IAC, theofficial organization for international educational, scientific andcultural exchanges, and for academic research.In 1953, the student union of “Instituto Superior Técnico”IST, the most important engineering school of Portugal,became also interested in establishing a relationship withIAESTE. The Ministry of Education intended to nominate,however, as student representative the leader of a UniversityCentre of the state youth organization “Mocidade Portuguesa”.MP had been founded in 1936 as a Portuguese version of thefascist youth organizations of Italy and Germany. Although,after World War II, it had lost much of its paramilitary aggressivecharacter, it became an unpopular bureaucratic instrumentfor supervising youth activities. Student unions, like ours, withfree elections of their leaders, were considered as a threat to thesecurity of the regime.In fall 1953 students of the union, including myself, startedto print “Forms O”, and to raise offers from various employers.When we had already gathered a number of offers, we found acarbon copy of a letter written by one of us on stationery ofthe student union to the General Secretary of IAESTE with anannex which did not mince words about the fascist and antidemocraticcharacter of MP, and the accusation that thePortuguese IAESTE Committee had a mere front man of theregime, as representative of student interests. We took fright,because, if this letter would be intercepted by the politicalpolice PIDE, this would have probably meant the closingdown of the student union and some of us being jailed.

We did not tellhim about the letter, but we told him that we did not agreewith somebody of MP being our representative. We offeredhim instead our cooperation, and showed him our pink paperswith the training offers. At that time, he was still far behindus in the preparation of the 1954 exchange. The result of ourconversation was a promise that we would be allowed to electour student representative to replace the student from MP.This arrangement was kept as long as Prof. Corrêa de BarrosPictured at the 1986 IAESTE Conference (Left to right):Professor Simoes Lopes, Conference President andRector of the Technical Universit of Lisbon; Eng. Coutodos Santos, Portuguese Secretary of State for Youth;Mrs Soili Lehisvirta, Member of the IAESTE AdvisoryCommittee, IAESTE Finlandwas in charge. After some time, however, he became Rector ofhis University, and lost control of IAESTE operations.The lack of interest of IAC in cooperating with the studentunion, and the absence of a Portuguese Delegate at severalIAESTE Conferences raised protests from the students of IST.They askeded me in 1964 to replace Prof. Corrêa de Barros. Iwas pleased that the students felt that I was a professor whocould be trusted. The Ministry of Education agreed to removethe IAESTE National Office from IAC, and to increase theannual grant. The grant was sufficient for paying the membershipfee, the travel of a Delegate to General Conferences, secretarialexpenses and even travel subsidies for outgoing students.In spite of the still ruling Salazar regime, I was fortunatelyallowed to run IAESTE in Portugal without political pressuresof any kind, as regards the selection of outgoing students. Somekind of selection has been always, and still is necessary, because,as a rule, we have an average of about ten candidates for eachtraining offer, which we are able to obtain. The transparency ofthe selection criteria and the possibility for freely elected studentrepresentatives to check the selection procedures was anabsolute necessity to keep their confidence during the Salazarregime, where discrimination against political opponents was acommon practice. Ten years later, the 1974 Revolution broughtdemocracy to Portugal. The student union assured me again oftheir trust, and asked me to go on with IAESTE (always as avoluntary unpaid job). More political freedom also meant thatwe could now extend our exchanges to more countries.Meanwhile the number of participating institutions and applyingstudents had increased. The high inflation rate in the seventiesand early eighties shrunk the real value of the annual grantgiven by the Ministry of Education. Rising salaries and socialinsurance increased the secretarial costs, which caused a financialsqueeze culminating in the cancellation of the annual grantfrom the Ministry of Education in 1990. In 1993, I promotedthe foundation of a non profit organization “AssociaçãoPortuguesa para a Permuta Internacional de EstudantesEstagiários Técnicos” APIET, with the aim to finance the activitiesof IAESTE in Portugal. The founding corporate membersincluded the most important Universities and EngineeringSchools in Portugal, as well as the student union of IST.Portugal hosted twice a General Conference: In 1970, thePresident was Prof. Corrêa de Barros, and IAESTE GeneralSecretary was Rolf Kratochwill from Austria. Our most difficultachievement was to arrange visas for delegations from a numbercountries without consular relations with Portugal.Fortunately, no delegation was prevented to participate. In1986 the President was the Rector of the Technical Universityof Lisbon, Prof. Simões Lopes, and IAESTE General Secretary ofIAESTE was George Anemoyannis from Greece. The highlightof that conference was a dinner in the cloister of a medievalmonastery of Palmela, watching sports students of theUniversity giving a dance performance in the quadrangle. ●SWEDEN: AN IAESTE TRAINEE ATVOLVO CARS BODY CORPORATIONBy Gozel Batyrowa, Kazakhstan Institute ofManagement, Economics and Strategic Research,trainee at Volvo Cars Body Corporation in Olofström,Sweden during 31 August – 31 January 2003.Before leaving for Sweden I was really worried since thiswould be my first trip to a country in Europe. But all myfears were literally gone as soon as I started to work; all myworkmates treated me very friendly and hospitably. I wasimpressed by the size of the plant but I felt quite confidentsince my instructors were very qualified and expressed carefullythe whole working process. Everyday I had something newto learn which helped me to get deeper involved in my workas well as in the plant as a whole.Having a degree in Economics I surprised my colleagueswith experiencing this technical training, but I’m sure thatmost of them agreed with me that this knowledge in how theprocess is working inside a plant like this, is useful for everyoneplanning to work in this field and for the future career –even if not technically related.Unfortunately the company couldn’t provide me a traineeshipalso in the economic department after my main training.

(left to right)ChatarinaCornmark,Juliano deLemos, andGozelBatyrowacourse this would have been very interesting and stimulating.During my spare time I studied Swedish at HoljeSchool in Olofström. So, now I can say that I speak someSwedish. Again I had great help in my work mates withmy homework during the breaks at work. Most weekendsI went travelling with my friends in the surrounding townssuch as Kristianstad, Sölvesborg, Karlshamn, Karlskrona,Lund and Malmö. Actually, I almost visited all parts of thesouth of Sweden.Together with Juliano de Lemos, another IAESTE trainee,I went to Stockholm to visit Scania. This study visit wasorganised by the IAESTE national office, and many othertrainees, as well as representatives from the IAESTE LocalCommittee of Stockholm took part in the event. We spent allweekend in Stockholm and visited Wasa Museum,Kaknästornet and walked in the Old Town. I enjoyed the tripvery much.Now I have been home for two months and I miss mySwedish friends very much. Through this article I would liketo thank all I met in Sweden and to all of you who understandthe advantage of not only increasing the quality of theeducation but also helping young students to become qualifiedspecialists enabled to establish mutual and beneficialcooperation in the world’s environment. A special thanks toMs Carola Barhammar, National Secretary of IAESTESweden, and to Ms Ludmila Pan, IAESTE Kazakhstan, whohelped me having this experience. I wish you all good luckand all the best for the future. ●IAESTE SWEDEN - RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENTPROJECT AT THE LABORATORY FOR SENSORYANDCHEMICALANALYSIS, IGGESUND PAPERBOARDBy Gunnar Forsgren, Techn. Managerof the Laboratory, IggesundPaperboardFor six months (October 2002 – March2003) Ms Nelli Rahanyan from Armeniaworked at the Laboratory for Sensory andChemical Analysis, Iggesund Paperboard.Iggesund Paperboard is a producer of paperboard based onvirgin fibres which meets the demands of their customers, theconsumers and the authorities. Iggesund´s product rangecomprises a number of different board types.The Laboratory for Sensory and Chemical Analysis, locatedat Strömsbruk, Sweden, is the centre of excellence ofIggesund Paperboard for odour and taste. It carries out anumber of tasks related to its specialist competence: productioncontrol, troubleshooting, technical service and researchand developmentNelli worked mainly in a research and development projectintended to estimate how effectively the board materialsstop aroma compounds from penetrating. An ideal packagingis completely tight not permitting anything to pass throughbut there are no such perfect packaging materials. However,well working laminated board materials may be very close toan ideal packaging.In the beginning of her period Nelli put considerableeffort to improve her English since her previous knowledgewas poor. At first we communicated therefore in Germanbut hard work combined with a number of private lessonsresulted in rapidly improved English and after somemonths we could communicate quite well in English.Much of the work consisted of systematic testing ofdifferent parts of the analytical equipment. In short thisequipment consists of a part that feed small amounts ofdifferent volatile compounds into a gas stream. Thisstream is swept into one half of a cell and in the other halfa clean gas is swept through. The material to be characterisedis forming the boarder between the two gasstreams and if any molecules penetrate through the materialthey are swept along the "clean" gas and can be collectedand measured.Through patient testing and a large number of sequentialadjustments the equipment worked quite well in theend of her IAESTE-period and in her final report Nelli wasable to show a number of interesting results comparable towhat is found in literature. Nelli also became a good friendof the staff working in the laboratory and we are allpleased with her staying from a professional as well as ahuman point of view. ●Nelli Rahanyan from the National Academy ofSciences of the Republic of Armenia, Institute ofOrganic Chemistry, Faculty: Chemical EngineeringIAESTE Annual Review 2003 19

Exchange ProfilesURUGUAYBy Rosina Segui, National Secretary, IAESTE UruguayThe relationship between IAESTE Uruguay and SACEEM goesback to 1995. That year was the first time that a student fromthe Winterthur Technical University arrived, through theIAESTE Programme, to this company in order to work as atrainee. SACEEM is one of the most important engineering andconstruction companies in Uruguay, which employs 500 people.It has done important works such as Shopping Malls, thenew Lycèe Française, dams, thermal power stations, high tensioncable lines, city sewers, bridges and structures and all kindsof civil and electromechanical works of diverse complexity.In the history of the Uruguayan Committee of IAESTE(15 years), SACEEM is the company that has welcomedmore foreign students, a total of 10 to date, which shows agreat trust towards IAESTE Uruguay and the IAESTEProgramme. Thanks to those 10 job offers, such an amountof Uruguayan students were able to get a rich work andpersonal experience abroad.As the Directive Board of SACEEM says: “the experienceof receiving foreign trainees in the company through IAESTEhas been from all points of view very positive. Being able ofestablishing a fruitful dialogue based on the technical knowledge,but basically, the daily contact from the human and culturalpoint of view that this activity generates, has been anessential element in the enrichment that this experiencemeans for both parts involved”.DEUTSCH, WARUM NICHT? – GERMAN, WHY NOT?This year is Goethe Institut Montevideo’s 40th birthday.Founded in 1963, this institute has brought the Germanculture and language closer to the Uruguayan people.Nowadays, it teaches German to 700 students per year,whose age ranges from 14 to 79 years old, where 70 % areaged around 30, mostly college and university students.Besides the regular courses tought: Basic, Middle,Advanced, Conversation and Grammar, it also preparesstudents for the international exams ZD, ZMP, ZOP whichhave an 85-95% of approval.Every year, the two top students are awarded with a onemonthscholarship in a German Goethe Institute of theirchoice. To date, this has given the chance to 80 students toput in practice this language and learn more about Germanway of life.This Goethe Institute branch in Montevideo not onlyteaches German, but also has a public library with 6000volumes and 300 users and constitutes a cultural centrewhere concerts and exhibitions are held every week, inaddition to lectures and seminars. Most recently, it hasopened the doors for other cultural and academic organizationssuch as IAESTE Uruguay, AUERFA (ex-scholarshipholders in Germany) and DAAD, broadening the impact ofthe German culture in Uruguay. ●Valerie Waibel of the Winterthur Technical Universitywith Eng. Tate of SACEEMIn the same way, “the profit that both the company andthe trainee get from the technical point of view, and also theplanning and management, depending on the circumstances,has been another important element that has motivatedthe commitment with this exchange programme, andon the other hand, helps Uruguayan students to developthemselves, through the contact with the foreign trainees orliving themselves their own fruitful experience abroad,which at the same time affects in an indirect but positiveway to the society as a whole”.To Valerie Waibel, the last trainee welcomed at this company,working in SACEEM was a new experience, becauseshe never had the chance to do a job at a working site. Therecycle of an old hotel at the old town of Montevideo, whichwill turn into the IDB headquarters (InternationalDevelopment Bank) was the site chosen by SACEEM inorder for Valerie to make her traineeship. There, she couldappreciate and value in situ the different characteristics ofthe job of workmen, foremen and Engineers of Uruguay andsome special techniques used in this kind of works, such asthe use of a theodolite to check the correct alignment of oldwalls and foundations.Programmes and companies like this are those who makethe difference. ●20 IAESTE Annual Review 2003

An other possibility is to helpeach other by establishing contacts that could help members intheir studies or job.Just imagine:● If only 1% of the former 300 000 IAESTE trainees help tofind an additional training offer, 3000 additional traineescould be exchanged. At present IAESTE exchanges about5000 trainees per year.In the news section the Friends of IAESTE Network membersfind trainees’ reports, information on future and past IAESTEevents and other IAESTE related topics.● You are working on a project for your studies or in your job.Through the network you can certainly find an IAESTEfriend who can help you to find the information you need.● You are asking yourself what has happened to your IAESTEfriends.
