<strong>IAESTE</strong> ANNUAL REVIEW 2009Welcome1Dear FriendsWhat a difference a year makes! At the start of 2008 we werecelebrating our 60th Anniversary and several months later theworld changed as the economic global crisis hit and we arenow living with the results. The areas that initially bore the bruntwere financial, insurance, property but then traditional <strong>IAESTE</strong>areas like construction and manufacturing were affected andsuddenly we lost placements as Employers in these fields wereno longer in a position to commit to them. This is the first majorcrisis in the era of globalisation and it needs a global response.Despite the great diversity of our countries in <strong>IAESTE</strong>, mostare facing similar problems with Company closures and risingunemployment. It is therefore important for all of our Membersand Co-operating Institutions to be sensitive to the situationfacing us as we continue to seek placements in this economicdownturn. We know that students who have benefited froman <strong>IAESTE</strong> placement are equipped with new ideas, toolsand visions, intercultural knowledge and competencies, newtechnologies, better communication skills with a sense of mobilityand adventure. Employers value the <strong>IAESTE</strong> programme becauseit provides the evidence they are looking for in future Employeeswho have developed the skills and attitudes which they findvaluable. These trainees will be the leaders of tomorrow in theirown fields so we must weather the current storm and trust thatthings will improve in the months that lie ahead.In spite of all this <strong>IAESTE</strong> managed to send 4579 students allover the world in 2008 and many International events took placewhich you can read about in this <strong>Review</strong>.Our congratulations to <strong>IAESTE</strong> Members:- Austria, Poland,Tunisia and Ecuador for reaching significant Anniversaries in2009 and thanks are due to all the Members and Co-operatingInstitutions for all their hard work on behalf of the students ofthe world.As my term of office as General Secretary comes to an end inJanuary 2010 I would like to take this opportunity to thank mostsincerely all the Employers, both Industrial and Academic whichhave so faithfully supported the Programme over the years.Your contribution has been outstanding and of course we couldnot exist without you. I also express our appreciation to ourSponsors, Alstom and ABB for their support in these difficulttimes. A special thank you to all the countries in <strong>IAESTE</strong> whichhave hosted my visits and helped me promote this wonderfulAssociation around the world. I wish my successor Mr GoranRadnović the very best as he leads <strong>IAESTE</strong> in the years ahead.Pauline FergusonGeneral Secretary<strong>IAESTE</strong> A.s.b.l.

Participating Employers andEducational InstitutionsIn 2008 there was an increase in the number of Employers andAcademic Institutions who offered traineeships. A total of 3726Industrial Employers and 958 Academic Institutions receivedstudents in 2008. Figure 10<strong>IAESTE</strong> would like to acknowledge the continued support of allEmployers and Educational Institutions in 2008.Figure 10 Participating Employers and Educational Institutions 2004-2008450040003636400239283677372635008300025002000150011749401168968958100050002004 2005 2006 2007 2008EmployersInstitutionsWork experience positionson offer in 2008The duration of the available positions can be seen in Figures2a and 2bMost of the training takes place in the period June to Septemberand coincides with the Northern Hemisphere vacation period. Inthe Southern Hemisphere, opportunities are available betweenOctober and April. 75 Members and Co-operating Institutions arenow in a position to offer long term training opportunities while23 offer training throughout the year.The majority of the work placements are exchanged during the<strong>Annual</strong> Conference in January on a bilateral basis but thanksto the development of the <strong>IAESTE</strong> IntraWeb the exchange cancontinue after this meeting. New and unused Offers can beput on the IntraWeb at any time by Members and Co operatingInstitutions and this ensures that <strong>IAESTE</strong> can accommodatestudents and Employer Offers as they arise.Categories of Offers: <strong>IAESTE</strong> classify placements as Researchand Development (D) indicating work of a laboratory nature;Professional (P) is used for professional activities, practicaldesign work and similar; Working environment Offers (W) indicatework in the industrial area relevant for the student’s backgroundand category (X) covers non-specific Offers.The non-specific (X) Offers can be general Office jobs, LanguageOffers and similar. In all cases it is the responsibility of thereceiving National Office making the (X) category Offers toensure that the working conditions are acceptable, beneficial tothe student and in line with the standards expected of all <strong>IAESTE</strong>Offers.

Figure 11The bulk of the Offers are in the Research and Development andProfessional areas and students favour these training placesthat are more in line with academic requirements. In manyinstances such training is a required part of the curriculum. TheWorking Environment (W) Offers are valued for higher pay andthe opportunities they provide to experience working conditionsin industry in other countries. In 2008 there was an increase inthe number of available Working Environment Offers.Returned Offers and cancellationsThis continues to be one of our major problem areas. Despite theefforts made to date to minimise losses, the number of trainingplaces lost or unused remains unacceptably high. Based on thefigures reported, the number of lost and unused training Offers in2008 amounted to 2984, 39.4% of the Offers received. Employerwithdrawals accounted for 15.9% and Student withdrawals were8%.In 2008 individual figures show that 6 Members and Co-operatingInstitutions managed to maintain their total losses below 20%which shows how hard it became in the middle of the yeardue to the global financial crisis and these countries are to becongratulated.<strong>IAESTE</strong> Members and Co-operating Institutions must continueto make every effort to minimise these losses, particularly theOffers that remain unused. Improvements here would result inthe release of additional available places. This should encourageall countries to seek improvements to their existing practicesand to examine their communication arrangements. Accurateand timely communications should help reduce Student andEmployer withdrawals and accurate matching of the student skillswith those required by the Employer would further contribute tominimising the withdrawal of Offers by Employers.The year round exchange facilitated by the <strong>IAESTE</strong> IntraWeb nowprovides the platform for the quick and accurate exchange ofplacements between Members and Co-operating Institutions fornew and unused Offers and also nominations for these places.This must contribute to the effective use of all Offers both newand unused, as they become available throughout the year.

<strong>IAESTE</strong>eventsInternational Awards12<strong>IAESTE</strong> International Academic Award"Ion Mincu" University of Architecture and Urbanism in Bucharestis the oldest and most important Academic Institution in its field inRomania. Its foundation is closely linked with the rise of modernRomania and the setting of its new Institutional structure andculture. The first School of Architecture was legally establishedin 1864, based on an Act issued by the first Monarch of thenewly founded State but, due to a lack of students, it neverreally functioned. The first Romanian architects studied mostlyin Paris, at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts (the first DPLG was IonMincu in 1883) and due to their enthusiasm on 15 October 1892the Romanian Society of Architects set up a private School ofArchitecture under its authority.UAUIM’s years of experience in International academicrelationships supported <strong>IAESTE</strong> activity, first as an AssociateMember of <strong>IAESTE</strong> International and now as a partner of <strong>IAESTE</strong>Romania and we are very proud of this. The most visible resultsof our initiatives can be seen through the increasing numberof exchanges that occur in the field of Architecture betweenRomania and countries abroad. Moreover, <strong>IAESTE</strong> Romaniahas its headquarters in the UAUIM building as well as the LocalCommittee of Bucharest. Both are managed by the President ofUAUIM himself and his fellow Staff Professors who have investedtheir energy and experience to guarantee a professional serviceto the students who are sent and received in Romania. TheUniversity is very proud to have received this International Awardin recognition of its work to developing <strong>IAESTE</strong> in Romania.Professor Emil Popescu, National Secretary, <strong>IAESTE</strong> Romania,with Senior Lecturer Daniel Comsa, Exchange Co-ordinator


<strong>IAESTE</strong> ANNUAL REVIEW 2009<strong>IAESTE</strong> INTERNATIONAL employer awardWilliam Clements Chemicals Ltd and the Department forRegional Development (Roads Service) Northern Ireland wereawarded the International <strong>IAESTE</strong> Employer’s Award to recognisetheir long standing support as Employers participating in the<strong>IAESTE</strong> programme. The awards were presented by Mrs PaulineFerguson, General Secretary, <strong>IAESTE</strong> A.s.b.l. at the annual<strong>IAESTE</strong> Summer Reception in Northern Ireland hosted by theDepartment for Employment & Learning, which took place onWednesday 23 July 2008 within the grounds ofBelfast Castle and was attended by all the <strong>IAESTE</strong>trainees based in Northern Ireland for the summerof 2008 and their host Employers.Mr Tom McCourtDRD (Roads Service)13Mr Raymond FarleyWm Clements Chemicals Ltd<strong>IAESTE</strong> INTERNATIONAL INDIVIDUAL AWARD Dr László Becker, HungaryOn the occasion of the celebration of the 60th anniversary of<strong>IAESTE</strong>, held at the <strong>Annual</strong> Conference in Jordan, 26 January2008, the <strong>IAESTE</strong> International Award was presented to Dr LászlóBecker for 24 years of outstanding co-operation and service tothe <strong>IAESTE</strong> Association worldwide.In his professional career, Dr Becker, as an AssociateProfessor, spent 17 years lecturing at the Technical Universityof Budapest. In 1993 he moved to the State Administration andheld various Managing Director posts as a civil servant at theState Privatisation Agency, the Ministry for Environment and theMinistry of Economy and Transport. Currently he is working asthe Chief Engineer for implementation of major infrastructureinvestment projects assisted by EU financing at the Municipalityof Budapest.Dr Becker was introduced to the <strong>IAESTE</strong>International family back in 1984 as the newlyappointed National Secretary of Hungary by theYouth Organisation of the Technical Universityof Budapest with the mission to develop aconstant, reliable National Organisation for theExchange programme, <strong>IAESTE</strong>. His mandatewas supported by the Central State YouthCommittee and the Ministry of Education aswell. Financial contributions from UNESCOand the SOROS Foundation helped to extendthat activity in the country so that four yearslater all major Engineering Universities andColleges participated through their LocalCommittees in the <strong>IAESTE</strong> exchange. The <strong>Annual</strong> Conferenceheld in Budapest in 1987 helped a lot in achieving a rapid growthin exchange figures from 20 to 200 during that period. Thoseresults were acknowledged by the Central Youth Organisationwhich presented him with the ”Youth Award” in 1988. He wasappointed as International Advisor to the Pro Rector of theTechnical University of Budapest to broaden its Internationalco-operation with major European Universities such as TU Delft,Trent Politechnic Nottingham and Imperial College London.Dr Becker served as a member of the <strong>IAESTE</strong> Advisory Committeein the years 1990-1993, in times of fundamental change in thehistory of Central and Eastern Europe, which affected the tasksand activities of the AC as well. But those days brought changesin the life of <strong>IAESTE</strong> Hungary too – the students founded andregistered the independent Association ofHungarian Engineering Students to fulfill theduties of the National Committee of <strong>IAESTE</strong>in Hungary. Since then Dr Becker has served<strong>IAESTE</strong> Hungary as Chairman of the AdvisoryBoard. In this capacity he advises the electedPresidents and Board of <strong>IAESTE</strong> Hungary onInternational affairs, fund raising and in particularon participating in the International <strong>IAESTE</strong>exchange. His active co-operation with thestudents enabled him to participate regularly atthe <strong>Annual</strong> Conferences of <strong>IAESTE</strong> and <strong>IAESTE</strong>Hungary is very proud that his work has beenrecognised by the International <strong>IAESTE</strong> Award.


eventsAnniversaries<strong>IAESTE</strong> AUSTRIAReaches its Diamond AnniversaryStefan HofbauerNational Secretary<strong>IAESTE</strong> Austria14The taste of International exchange through <strong>IAESTE</strong> reachedAustria one year after the Organisation was founded. In 1949the Austrian Committee for International Student Exchange(ÖKISTA) began to host the administration for <strong>IAESTE</strong> in Austria.In 1950 <strong>IAESTE</strong> Austria became a Full Member. Until 1989 theprogramme in Austria was run by permanent staff, but afterwardsit was taken over by motivated students who established a verywell organised and effective National Committee which currentlyhas six Local Committees.The number of exchanged Offers rose fromaround 30 each year before 1989, to theconstant number of about 140 Offers since<strong>IAESTE</strong> Austria was established as a studentrun Committee. Today <strong>IAESTE</strong> Austria isrepresented at all major technical Universitiesin Austria with approximately 130 volunteerstudents and one administrative Secretary.<strong>IAESTE</strong> Austria had the honour to be the hostcountry for a record number of five <strong>Annual</strong>Conferences. (Vienna: 1955, 1983, 2004;Salzburg: 1975; Graz: 1989). Furthermore, <strong>IAESTE</strong> Austria wasthe host of the Seminar on <strong>IAESTE</strong> Development, SID, in April1993 which took place in Annaberg. Several Austrians havemade a significant impact on the International Association overthe years. From 1968 to 1974 Mr Rolf Kratochwil was the 4thGeneral Secretary of <strong>IAESTE</strong>. Mr Thomas Faltner was elected asa Board member for the one year term in 2007 and was electedagain as a Board member for 2009 at the <strong>Annual</strong> Conference inWarsaw.The <strong>IAESTE</strong> Motivation Seminar, JUMP, was also initiatedin 1995 by the former <strong>IAESTE</strong> Austria National SecretaryMartin Klaus. The first two JUMP Seminars were heldin Vienna and Salzburg. We are very happy that thisyear, the year of our 60th Anniversary, that the greatMotivation Event returns to Austria and will take place inRadstadt at the end of September.2007 Central European Convention in PurbachAnother great initiative was taken by the former NationalSecretaries of Croatia and Austria in May 1998. Mario Kauzlaricand Thomas Haim founded the Central European Convention(CEC). Twice a year approximately 160 volunteers from sixMember countries and around 20 invited countries meet to worksuccessfully on international progress for <strong>IAESTE</strong> and to provideprecious know-how for each other.2004 <strong>Annual</strong> Conference Vienna<strong>IAESTE</strong> Austria is delighted to be celebrating its 60th Anniversaryand looks forward to exchanging many more students in theyears to come.


<strong>IAESTE</strong> ANNUAL REVIEW 2009<strong>IAESTE</strong> PolandCelebrating its Golden JubileeOlga LegackaPresident<strong>IAESTE</strong> Poland2009 marks the 50th Anniversary of the involvement of Polishstudents and Employers in the International programme ofinternships through <strong>IAESTE</strong>. From the very beginning we focusedon the highest quality of service, conscientiously achieving ourmain aims through promoting International appreciation andgoodwill.The Polish Committee of <strong>IAESTE</strong> was established in 1957 byProfessor Janusz Tymowski from Warsaw University of Technologyand shortly after <strong>IAESTE</strong> Poland became an Associate Memberof the <strong>IAESTE</strong> family. In 1959 during the <strong>Annual</strong> Conference inTurkey, Poland was accepted as a Full Member in <strong>IAESTE</strong>.At the beginning of our activity, <strong>IAESTE</strong> Poland was part of theonly one, legal student’s Organisation in Poland – ZSP (ThePolish Students Union). In those days, it was not easy to travelabroad, especially to western European countries, so we had toco-operate with the state-controlled Tourist Agency – Almatur.That was the only way to be granted passports and cross thePolish border. The Polish <strong>IAESTE</strong> Committee was a window onthe world!Nowadays, <strong>IAESTE</strong> Poland is gaining a new role in its history bypartnering with Companies, especially in the field of relationshipsbetween Industry, technical students and well-qualifiedEngineers.From the beginning of <strong>IAESTE</strong> Poland’s existence we havehosted over 12,000 students from 60 countries. At present<strong>IAESTE</strong> Poland organises about 300 internships for foreignstudents and co-operates with over 250 Companies from allover Poland making it one of the biggest <strong>IAESTE</strong> countries tosend and receive students.For our Golden Jubilee celebrations we plan to issue a specialedition of the monograph about the history and the greatestachievements of <strong>IAESTE</strong> Poland. Moreover, a special exhibitionwill be presented at the main Polish Academic Centres,accompanied by numerous events organised by our LocalCommittees. The most significant event of our celebrations washosting the 62nd <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> Conference, which gatheredtogether over 250 International guests from 77 countries fromall over the world.15The 50th Anniversary Celebrations were heldin the main Hall of Warsaw University of Technologyand began with these words,“50 years ago, at this University,Professor Tymowski founded <strong>IAESTE</strong>Poland. We are more than happy thattonight we can celebrate our GoldenJubilee with all of you. <strong>IAESTE</strong> Polandwould not exist without great peopleand some of them are here with ustonight.”Pictures clockwise (from top left)1 The Founding Father of <strong>IAESTE</strong>, Mr James Newby (UK) and theFounder of <strong>IAESTE</strong> Poland, Professor Janusz Tymowski (firstfrom the left) during the <strong>Annual</strong> Conference in Warsaw in 1966.2 The main Hall of Warsaw University of Technology3 Participants of the Post Conference Tour, Warsaw 19664 Summer Reception in Poland5 Trainees at work during a traineeship in <strong>IAESTE</strong> Poland


<strong>IAESTE</strong> TUNISIAFifty years in <strong>IAESTE</strong>Mr Tahar FriaaNational Secretary<strong>IAESTE</strong> Tunisia16We are extremely proud to announce that <strong>IAESTE</strong> Tunisia iscelebrating half a century of existence this year. Soon after theindependence of Tunisia, an Organisation such as <strong>IAESTE</strong> wasable to be founded in Tunisia with the aim of sharing practicaland professional experience in order to consolidate the image ofa tolerant Tunisia. Thus, in 1959, Tunisia joined the <strong>IAESTE</strong> familyand became a Full Member in 1989.In April 2004, the Seminar on <strong>IAESTE</strong> Development (SID) movedfor the first time out of Europe to North Africa to Tunis. <strong>IAESTE</strong>Tunisia accepted the challenge and welcomed 58 delegates from25 countries.During the General Conference of Colombia in 2005, The NationalSchool of Engineering (ENIT), the supporting Organisation of<strong>IAESTE</strong> Tunisia, became a Founding Member of <strong>IAESTE</strong> A.s.b.l.For more than 50 years, several generations of <strong>IAESTE</strong> Tunisiavolunteers have multiplied their efforts to improve their way ofworking, including the organisation and communication with allforeign Committees and National partners: <strong>IAESTE</strong> Tunisia hassent 2260 students aboard, received 1531 and co-operated withmore than 54 countries.With only the National Committee of <strong>IAESTE</strong> operating in Tunisia,composed of a National Secretary and about twenty volunteerstudents from ENIT, we can exchange every year around 100placements. We try, on the other hand, to do our best to offer tothe incoming trainees the best conditions during their internships.It is always a pleasure to hear their encouraging feedback. In fact,the majority of foreign trainees appreciate the trips, the culturaland social events arranged by our Committee, especially theeternal “south trip” which includes a visit to the desert.There is no doubt that <strong>IAESTE</strong> has had a great influence onour lives in one way or another. It offers to everyone involved inthe programme the opportunity to enhance their personal andprofessional development, to be in touch with different countriesand different cultures. So we would like to express our sinceregratitude to all <strong>IAESTE</strong> Committees, Co-operating Institutionsand participating Employers who have relied on us and haveparticipated in building this incredible and unique experience.Finally, we look forward to another 50 successful years for<strong>IAESTE</strong> Tunisia.SID Tunis 2004<strong>Annual</strong> Conference Lisbon 1986

This year, differing from the past,only three major Work Groups were offered: Administration,IPLUG and Strategic Marketing. Additionally and for the first timeever, a Mentoring Group was established as a need for this wasrecognised at the <strong>Annual</strong> Conference. In only twelve hours manytopics were presented, discussed and worked on. Thanks to thehighly motivated participants and Work Group Co-ordinatorsmany new ideas can be developed, new strategies be createdand common interests be shared. An exchange of different viewpoints did not only happen during the Group Fair on the Saturdayafternoon but actually all the time during lunch, dinner or sociallyin the evening as everybody was eager to participate towards thedevelopment of <strong>IAESTE</strong> A.s.b.l.Loncke and their team, for making this year’s SID another veryspecial event in our <strong>Annual</strong> Calendar. The Welcome dinner washeld in Groot Vleeshuis, a traditional warehouse in the middleof Ghent, with hams maturing on the ceiling with a very uniqueatmosphere. On Friday evening Mr Christophe Peeters, whois responsible for city development, hosted a Reception in theTown Hall and emphasised the importance of Globalisation andthe great role of our Association in that process. As a sign ofappreciation all of us were invited to sign the Golden Book ofthe City before we moved to Het Pand, the Ghent UniversityAccording to the new Statutes and By-Laws the SID Co-ordinator2010 will be elected at the next <strong>Annual</strong> Conference in Zurich,Switzerland and for SID 2011 <strong>IAESTE</strong> Spain kindly agreed to hostour Seminar on <strong>IAESTE</strong> Development.We extend thanks to our great hosts, <strong>IAESTE</strong> Belgium, inparticular the National Secretary, Annelies Vermeir and KevinCongress Centre, which used to be a monastery in the ThirteenthCentury. The Rector of the University of Ghent, Professor Paulvan Cauwenberge welcomed the participants for the Gala Dinnerand in his speech he stressed the importance of Internationalrelations, not only for Companies or Universities but also forstudents during their studies to create their own networks and to


<strong>IAESTE</strong> ANNUAL REVIEW 200919widen their personal horizons for a better global understanding.The second main Sponsor, besides the University of Ghent wasDEME, a Civil Engineering Company with a focus on dredging.They gave a short presentation on their work throughout theworld. A wonderful buffet followed and everybody agreed that itwould have been a shame not to have tasted the French fries withmayonnaise along with asparagus and of course the chocolatefountain and waffles in different variations. After the productiveWorkshops the next day we had the chance to experience moreof Belgium’s culture, with highlights including a boat trip and avisit to a chocolate manufacturer, which of course included atasting session.On Saturday, after the hard work participants were rewarded bythe traditional International Evening, again with a huge selectionof food and drink from all over the world and of course the largevariety of Belgian beers.In the end everybody experienced a productive and inspiringSID, discovered a new culture and returned with the feeling thatthey had contributed to the future of <strong>IAESTE</strong> but also with theknowledge that this needs to be continued over the year.

<strong>IAESTE</strong> at work


<strong>IAESTE</strong> ANNUAL REVIEW 2009<strong>IAESTE</strong> Day 2008<strong>IAESTE</strong> Day was created in 2005 to celebrate <strong>IAESTE</strong> and tomake it more widely known to the world. Right from the start,the event has developed a lot and with every year we take onnew challenges. I-Day serves as an occasion for all <strong>IAESTE</strong>Members and Co-operating Institutions worldwide to promote<strong>IAESTE</strong>. On this day, every country can organise an event uniqueto themselves, be it in the form of a formal dinner, a barbecue,a concert or a huge party so long as <strong>IAESTE</strong> is highlighted andpromoted.23<strong>IAESTE</strong> Day 2008 was held on Thursday, 16 October. In totalthirty countries participated. There were lots of great I-day eventsacross the globe, from Australia to Tajikistan and Japan to SierraLeone and lots in between.This year some new ideas of celebrating this event included thevery entertaining Tripling in Poland, a Football Match in F.Y.R.Macedonia and a Slow Bike Race in Switzerland.Pictures, clockwise (from top left) 1 Slow Bike Race Switzerland 2 Thewinning I-Day Photo 3 Tripling in Poland 4 I-Day celebration in Norwayright: Anna Ciemięga; left: NS UAE Ms Rana KabbaniIn 2008 we launched the first I-day photo and video competition.The task for countries was to create a picture related to<strong>IAESTE</strong> and the number 60 since we were celebrating the 60thAnniversary of <strong>IAESTE</strong>. The judges were very impressed bysome of the entries but finally chose the photo sent in by <strong>IAESTE</strong>United Arab Emirates.During the Gala Dinner of the 62nd <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> Conferencein Warsaw, the Co-ordinator of <strong>IAESTE</strong> Day 2008, AnnaCiemięga, presented the National Secretary, <strong>IAESTE</strong> UAE,Ms Rana Kabbani with the I-Day Diploma. All the Conferenceparticipants were then able to watch the movie showing thebackground to making the winning picture.We hope that this I-Day will inspire and motivate othersand bring lots of new, creative ideas for organising somegreat events in your countries during the next <strong>IAESTE</strong> Dayin October 2009! In the end, the most importantthing on that day is to have a great time, to dosomething special or just invite some friends andcarry the <strong>IAESTE</strong> Spirit into the world. But – mostimportantly – take some good photos during your<strong>IAESTE</strong> Day celebrations and send it to the I-Dayteam so that we can show it to the world in ourgallery!Show the world what <strong>IAESTE</strong> is all about!I-Day Team


perspectivesThe AcademicProfessor Meyer Nahon, Department of Mechanical EngineeringMcGill University, Canada24My first exposure to <strong>IAESTE</strong> came in 1978, in my last year ofUndergraduate studies at Queen's University, when I wenton a work term at Tel Aviv University. Professor Norman Kerr,then Chairman of <strong>IAESTE</strong> Canada, was one of my Professorsat Queen’s and was instrumental in finding this placement. Itwas my first big trip on my own outside Canada. I worked onsolar ponds---a method then proposed to collect solar energy inlarge ponds with stratified saline concentrations. The work wasinteresting, but the time in a foreign country even more so. I stillremember fondly the trip around Northern Israel, organized by<strong>IAESTE</strong> Israel based at the Technion, with all the other <strong>IAESTE</strong>students in Israel that summer.interactions grew, they needed summer students to work on ourproject. So between 2003 and 2005, I accepted students to workthere. Those students were Pascal Maglie from Switzerland,Koen Jansen from The Netherlands and Samuel Kummrow fromSwitzerland. Samuel later returned to Canada to travel and to doa placement with Professor Clement Gosselin at Laval University,who was another collaborator on this project.In 2001, I moved to McGill University in Montreal and built upa lab there called the Aerospace Mechatronics Lab. <strong>IAESTE</strong>students continued to be an integral part of our summers. Weneeded help in flying some of our aerial vehicles. Over the period2005-2008, we had invaluable help from Magnus Nordenborgfrom Sweden, Karel Steurs from Belgium and Daniel Peon andGabriela Waldhart from Austria. Gabriela tells me she still keepsin touch with the other <strong>IAESTE</strong> students from Europe that shemet in Montreal.Gabriela (on the right) in Field TestsWhen I became a Professor in 1991 at the University of Victoriain British Columbia, I wanted to give students the opportunityfor similar experiences by facilitating foreign students workingin Canada and Canadian students working abroad. I've long feltthat living in a foreign place for months at a time is the best wayto travel. What better way to do this than to take <strong>IAESTE</strong> studentsas summer interns in the lab I was setting up, called the Spaceand Subsea Robotics Lab.Jan Akerlund from Finland was the first <strong>IAESTE</strong> student in mylab in Victoria. In 1992, he helped lay the foundation for our lab'searly research in underwater vehicle simulation. When I lookback at some of the work he did, I'm really impressed at whatI asked him to do and what he managed to get done. In theyears that followed, I hosted another two other students in mylab: Ole Gabrielsen from Norway and Marco Schuepfer fromSwitzerland. They each contributed to my lab's activities in theirown way. Marco’s great imagination and design skills were achallenge to keep up with. He greatly appreciated the time in thelab because, as he said, it allowed him to see what all that stuffhe was learning in school was good for. He went back to finishhis studies at ETH and drops me a line every year or so.In 1999, I became involved with a group at the National ResearchCouncil in Penticton, British Columbia that was working on avery unusual design for a large radio telescope antenna. As ourIn most cases, the <strong>IAESTE</strong> students work together with myGraduate students helping in their research. This gives an addedbenefit of exposing my grad students, usually Canadians, tostudents from around the world.Invariably, the <strong>IAESTE</strong> students have been excellent. They aremature, responsible and eager to learn and help in our work. Formany, it's their first exposure to North America.In 2003, Ginny Arnold, <strong>IAESTE</strong> Canada’s National Secretary,asked me to be on the <strong>IAESTE</strong> Canada Committee. This seemeda nice opportunity to help <strong>IAESTE</strong> in its mission. I've tried tofind additional work terms for foreign students at McGill andgive counsel to McGill students who are thinking of applyingto <strong>IAESTE</strong>. I've talked to many of them over the years and theyalways come back feeling that the experience was tremendous.In closing, just to show what a small world it is, this year I am onsabbatical at the Technion, in Israel. Each day, coming in to work,I drive by the Residence where I slept on the first night of that triparound Northern Israel as an <strong>IAESTE</strong> trainee, 30 years ago.Samuel Kummrow in Penticton


<strong>IAESTE</strong> ANNUAL REVIEW 2009The National Office<strong>IAESTE</strong> DOWN UNDER – <strong>IAESTE</strong> AUSTRALIARochelle Ades, National Secretary, <strong>IAESTE</strong> AustraliaWith intense competition and changing technology, a globaloutlook is essential for Industries prepared to help develop theskills of an international pool of student talent.it was a huge relief to know that when I arrived someone from<strong>IAESTE</strong> in my host city Hamburg, Germany, would be there topick me up and show me the ropes for the first few weeks.Even under the current Global Financial Crisis,there are still a large number of Employers thatare able to benefit through the <strong>IAESTE</strong> program.One such Employer in Australia, Dr MichaelBannister, Education Manager & ProgramLeader, CRC-ACS, says he can recommend<strong>IAESTE</strong>’s services without reservation to anyEmployer:“The CRC-ACS has obtained students via<strong>IAESTE</strong> since 2007 and also used their servicesto obtain visas for Direct Placement studentssince 2004.Dr Michael BannisterWithout fail the students that have come to us have all beenenthusiastic, highly motivated and fit in very well socially in ourOrganisation. With our opportunity to review the selections priorto finalisation, we have the ability to obtain students with a highlevel of required technical skills.”I can’t thank <strong>IAESTE</strong> enough simply for providing me with theopportunity to be overseas and working in a foreign industry- and especially the feeling of being a part of a world-widenetwork.My year overseas has shaped my future, my personal goalsand my career aspirations. I have friends, family, contacts andprofessional mentors throughout Europe as a direct result ofmy time in Germany.”Australia is also a long way to come for overseas students andwe often find that once students spend some time here theydon’t want to leave! I don’t think there is a corner of Australia thatan <strong>IAESTE</strong> trainee has not visited!Marie-Luise Wille from Switzerland spent ‘three awesome months’at The Swinburne Centre for Astrophysics and Supercomputing.“The research project in Astrophysics was challenging but veryinteresting and I even got the chance to observe the AngloAustralian Telescope in Coonabarabran. My colleagues werefantastic and a big support, especially at the beginning. I likedit so much and was fortunate that my traineeship was extendedat the Centre for another 2 months after I had the opportunity totravel around Australia a little.25Although most of the other <strong>IAESTE</strong> trainees worked somewhereelse, we caught up almost every weekend including makingsome trips to places like the Grampians. It's great fun to meetpeople from all over the world and to make friends for life.”A special thank you goes to Swinburne University who havegiven <strong>IAESTE</strong> Australia a home, the Employers who havesupported us and the students who have appreciated their<strong>IAESTE</strong> experiences.As <strong>IAESTE</strong> Australia enters its third year under the host ofSwinburne University of Technology, our island continentis embracing the opportunities offered through this uniqueAssociation. For a country without borders it can be quitea huge leap for students to consider going overseas for atraineeship. But more and more students are ready to takethe plunge, especially after they hear about the experiencesfrom past trainees such as Claudia Schulz:“When I left Brisbane for a country completely different inculture, language, weather, people and even food, I tried notto think about what I was getting myself into. When faced withlooming challenges and adventures in all of these sectors


The StudentBack to Reality in Sweet SaloneDale Barnes, Student of Mechanical Engineering,Manchester University, UKPreconceptions26When I first saw Sierra Leone on the placements list I immediatelythought of the last time I heard of it on the news a few years back.I remembered something about an horrific war and I knew it wassomewhere in Africa but I had no idea where. Then I continuedlooking at the other placements available.In fact I did not even apply to go to Sierra Leone; I appliedfor places like China, Canada, and Ecuador. In the end I didnot succeed in any of my Applications and a couple of weeksafterwards, I received an e mail saying that there was still aplace available in Sierra Leone, working in a rutile mine if I wasinterested. The obvious clichés of war and poverty poppedback into my head for a moment and then I thought to myself,I wonder what it’s really like? Someone was going to snap upthis placement and have a guaranteed once in a lifetime epicexperience so why not let that person be me? So I e mailedstraight back the affirmative, even though I still had no ideawhere it was and no idea what rutile was or what I was gettingmyself into. That is where my experience began.It did not take me long to find out that it is in West Africa, in themiddle of the tropics, just east of Guinea, at the bottom of the UNDevelopment index and that I would be going in the height of oneof the warmest, wettest wet seasons on earth. I then found outI would need a dozen injections, a backpack full of emergencymedication and a lot of pens. Almost every time I mentioned“Sierra Leone” to anyone I got this confused raised-eyebrowlook of disbelief. I think at this point most people would havebeen having second thoughts but after weeks of preparationI finally got there. I was an employee of Sierra Rutile Ltd oneof the world’s largest rutile mining Companies in Sierra Leone,West Africa.Learning to weldMy practical experience at the mines was excellent. I felt likeI learned the real hands-on practical skills that a MechanicalEngineer should know, but they do not teach at University likehow to tell if a machine is running properly by feeling it, listeningto it and understanding it, how to machine your own spare parts,how to weld and how to improvise using minimal resources. Ialso learnt a lot about how not to do things, though in a countrylike Sierra Leone, with no real safety regulations, the wrong waycan sometimes be the only option.A unique cultural eye-openerIn terms of my cultural experience in Sierra Leone, I wascompletely overloaded and taken aback. Every single day I wasthere at least one thing happened that was completely strangeand unbelievable and would never happen at home. I learnt bitsof Krio (pigeon English) and Mende (a local tribal language) tohelp me converse with the locals and for many of the people Ispoke to it was the first time they had heard a white man speaktheir own language, which they and I both found incredible. TheSierra Leonean people are incredibly friendly as it is, but assoon as they heard me speak their language that was it, instanthilarity, rapture and applause. The best was when I would walkthrough the local village and as usual, I would get swamped bylocal children shouting “White man! White man!” in Mende andasking for pens. Sometimes I would shout back at them “Mendeman! Mende man! How are you?” also in Mende and they wouldgo wild with laughter. I even met one girl who had never seen awhite man before and she thought I was a monster.Into the unknownAs soon as I stepped off the plane onto the rough, crackedtarmac of runway at Lungi airport, looking over at a burnt outhusk of a military plane on the other side, out into the hot andchoking humidity, everything was different. From that momentonwards for three months, everything that I knew about culture,society, my way of living, my language, everything, would becompletely turned on its head. The first few days were the mostnervous, dazed, two days of my life. I had never experiencedreal culture shock until then. Everything was completely new.It is impossible to explain the feeling I had in those first days,though I would come to be very jealous watching other studentsgo through the same experience upon arrival.Nat Horton, one of my mentors


<strong>IAESTE</strong> ANNUAL REVIEW 2009So Sierra Leone is a great cultural challenge, especially from awhite European point of view but what did I really learn? I workedfor about three weeks with one man, Ahmed, overhauling a dieselengine, gaining a wealth of practical, hands-on experience. Webecame good friends. He taught me everything there is to knowabout diesel engines and he showed me how to improvise toolsfrom nothing in a country where there isn’t a tool shop for 100miles all around and spare parts take 3 months to arrive. It tookus three weeks to get an engine working which had been sittingfor 20 years rusting away in an abandoned tractor. Coming homeI feel detached from everything I was used to because I can’trelate to it in the same way anymore. I can’t relate to the issuesof the British middle class, the credit crunch, carbon emissions,gas bills, hedge-trimmers, multi-car insurance, all of it seemssilly compared to the real problems that people are facing on theother side of the world.are many villages utilizing river water for domestic use in SierraLeone that could benefit from this technology. I have thereforedecided to go back to install these pumps in some of the villagesin the east of the country, replacing the need for manual watertransportation. This work will be carried out with the help ofthe Eastern Polytechnic University in Kenema, who are willingto provide accommodation as well as welding and cuttingmachines. I have secured some of the necessary materials andcomponents that will be shipped over to fabricate the pumpsin Kenema. We are currently seeking the funding to make it allpossible. If the pump project is successful my vision would be tofind some way of starting a sustainable manufacturing businessin Sierra Leone where the workers will be paid reasonably withthe aim of bringing something good to their country through ruraldevelopment and the possibility of exporting to neighbouringregions.27The futureAbove all, I realised that all these images that people have aboutSierra Leone are wrong. Firstly they aren’t at war and the peopleI encountered were the most peaceful and welcoming people I’veever met. The country itself is incredibly beautiful and incrediblyfree. In Sierra Leone I felt the closest to ‘free’ that I have everfelt, freed from the nonsense that fills your life in the developedworld, all the material things that distract you from reality. InSierra Leone, to live you have to think, you have to be on yourtoes all the time and it’s a great feeling. In Freetown, you neverknow if you’ll have electricity that day. You have to shower froma bucket of rainwater and you have to hustle and bargain yourway through everything to survive. It’s completely the oppositeof the UK, which can be a good thing. It’s not that I’ve becomesome sort of nature-loving hippy; it’s just that my eyes have beenopened and I feel like I see a bigger picture now.I will definitely be going back to Sierra Leone, I feel like I have to;my experience has really inspired me. Whilst travelling east toKenema and Bo I met people in need of help, who were willingto help me help them. It just so happened that whilst studyingin France I completed a project on a pump that works withoutelectricity and allows water to be pumped up a hill from a riverusing the energy of a height drop such as a waterfall. ThereBeing an <strong>IAESTE</strong> trainee has meant so much to me in so manyways. It has completely changed my life in quite an unexpectedway and allowed me to find a purpose and direction wherebyI feel my skills as an Engineer can make a real contribution tohumanity. If I had not been on this placement, I do not think thatwould have happened. I think the experience of immersing oneselfinto a foreign culture and working in a foreign environment withpeople completely different to you is something that everyoneshould try and is an invaluable life experience. It allows you toreflect upon your world, your work and yourself in ways thatsimply are not possible at home.


The Volunteers<strong>IAESTE</strong> CYPRUS VOLUNTEERING TEAM:Prepared by: Nicolas Epaminonda, Andria Theodorou, Christina KailiRepresentatives of the Cyprus Student Volunteering Team28The 2008 Volunteering team of <strong>IAESTE</strong> Cyprus was created by agroup of Cypriot students to consolidate the cultures of both thehosting and the visiting students and also to assist the visitingstudents in their social inquiries. The specific goals set, such as toprovide social events, to promote the creation of friendships andto provide guidance and support to students, aimed to benefitboth the <strong>IAESTE</strong> incoming students and the volunteers. Some ofthe Student Volunteers had already lived the experiences of an<strong>IAESTE</strong> traineeship before joining the Volunteering team, whileothers had no previous relations with <strong>IAESTE</strong>.mountains. During these visits we had the delightful opportunityto visit archaeological sites, local religious monuments andmuseums, to walk some nature trails, initiate conversations withthe locals and enjoy the sandy beaches of Cyprus. Apart fromthe cultural activities, in times when we could not arrange foran excursion or a visit, we were able to substitute the free timewe had for other social meetings, ranging from simple fast-foodgatherings, to bowling, clubbing, eating out at taverns or arranginghome-cooking nights. Our participation in these activities allowedus to interact with the incoming students, through the exchangeof ideas, views, opinions and experiences, which created valuablebeyond borders friendships.Apart from the student volunteers, the Volunteering team of<strong>IAESTE</strong> Cyprus also included non student volunteers. In orderto show Cyprus hospitality and close family relations, whichare important themes of the every-day life in Cyprus, thestudent volunteers introduced members of their family into thevolunteers’ team. Grandparents, uncles and aunts were able toassist by offering their homes to the <strong>IAESTE</strong> trainees to stay andenjoy during weekends and also by organising afternoon partiesand dinners. This extraordinary situation resulted in a CyprusVolunteering team that was composed of members with differentages ranging from 22 to 83.The team’s contribution to <strong>IAESTE</strong> Cyprus was very significantwith high quality and variety since <strong>IAESTE</strong> Cyprus is not a studentrun Organisation. Due to the fact that <strong>IAESTE</strong> incoming studentswere residing throughout Cyprus, we were able to assistin gathering them from different cities for major activitiesand as a result create a sincere and friendly environmentin which they had the opportunity to combine work,entertainment, as well as sightseeing and excursions.We organised events and activities that were enjoyableand important to both us and the visiting <strong>IAESTE</strong>students, not only every weekend but also during theweek. With the financial help of <strong>IAESTE</strong> Cyprus andthe involvement of our older volunteering members, weorganised free trips and weekends in Nicosia, Larnaca,Limassol, Paphos, Paralimni, Ayia Napa and the TroodosLast summer would not have been so amazingfor all of us if it wasn’t for <strong>IAESTE</strong>. We wereable to quickly connect with all the trainees,in such a way that we actually had fun; jokingwith each other while providing them guidanceand support during their stay in Cyprus. Whileshowing our country to incoming <strong>IAESTE</strong>students we were able to see and enjoy ourcountry as never before. While exposing ourculture, traditions, beliefs and life style, in a way that attractedthe attention of the incoming <strong>IAESTE</strong> trainees, we were able tobetter understand ourselves and others. In the end, we formedfriendships which still continue and are voiced through our‘<strong>IAESTE</strong> Cyprus’ facebook group.As volunteers we believe we have achieved our most importantgoals. Improvement though is always needed. Our mainchallenges now are to keep our team strong, make it grow insize and to introduce new ideas, activities and thoughts for thefuture. We are delighted to be part of the team this year also andwelcome the Non-Cypriots permanently living in Cyprus whohave now joined our <strong>IAESTE</strong> volunteering team. We encourageeveryone to seek such a unique and valuable life experienceopportunity.

Currentlythe Association is working on a concept to improveaccessibility for <strong>IAESTE</strong> Alumni and to make betteruse of the benefit of an International network. <strong>IAESTE</strong>International has placed more than 326,000 studentson an internship abroad in its 60 years of history.Re-connecting these former trainees links peoplearound the world and facilitates the contact with former<strong>IAESTE</strong> trainees. Additionally the Alumni Networkoffers an attractive platform for Companies, Partnersand Sponsors of <strong>IAESTE</strong> International.To reach these goals and further strengthen the wider<strong>IAESTE</strong> community, <strong>IAESTE</strong> intends to re-launch anew Alumni network by 2010.For the moment the current <strong>IAESTE</strong> Alumni Network,with more than 10000 members, offers an excellentopportunity to stay in touch with other Friends of<strong>IAESTE</strong>: www.iaeste.org/friendsSeminar on <strong>IAESTE</strong> Development (SID)Gerhard GevelmannInterim SIDCo-ordinatorSID serves <strong>IAESTE</strong> by bringing together <strong>IAESTE</strong>Members and Co-operating Institutions to discussissues of best practice, administration, organisationaladvancement and the development of the Organisation.Unlike the <strong>Annual</strong> Conference, which focuses on theexchange of traineeships, SID provides a structuredforum for delegates to discuss ideas and actions toimprove <strong>IAESTE</strong> as an International Organisation.Work Groups work on specific tasks requested bythe General Conference, the <strong>IAESTE</strong> Board and theMembership at large provide the topics to be discussedat SID.
