Welcome<br />

Dear <strong>IAESTE</strong> Friends and Supporters,<br />

Welcome to the <strong>2018</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Review</strong>!<br />

Throughout <strong>2018</strong>, the International Association for Exchange <strong>of</strong> Students<br />

for Technical Experience, celebrated its <strong>70</strong>th anniversary. The idea <strong>of</strong><br />

exchanging students <strong>international</strong>ly had come to Mr. James Newby, the<br />

founder <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong>, before the Second World War had begun. “During<br />

the 1920’s and 30’s he and his wife had entertained people <strong>of</strong> diverse<br />

nationalities and races in their home, some <strong>of</strong> whom kept in touch over the<br />

war <strong>years</strong>, and for whom they felt a warm affection. However, at that time<br />

the general climate <strong>of</strong> opinion was not so favourable towards exchange<br />

programmes.”<br />

Welcome<br />

From the<br />

President<br />

Mr. Newby wrote a paper for the International Labour <strong>Review</strong> in July 1953<br />

entitled “The Work <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong>,” in which he said: “I recollect that when in<br />

1937 an effort was made to promote this type <strong>of</strong> exchange <strong>of</strong> students,<br />

the response from industry was apathetic, but on a revival in 1946 there<br />

seemed to be a complete change <strong>of</strong> outlook on the part <strong>of</strong> industry in<br />

general”. The first exchanges were made in 1946 but the association as<br />

such started two <strong>years</strong> later.<br />

Seventy <strong>years</strong> is a respectable age for any human institution and shows<br />

clearly that it has responded to a particular need. Had it not, it would never<br />

have survived the vicissitude <strong>of</strong> life for such a long period. It is difficult to<br />

isolate our impact on human development, but we know we have one,<br />

we see it every day in the young people whose lives have been changed<br />

by their <strong>IAESTE</strong> experience. Ever since large scale <strong>international</strong> exchange<br />

projects such as Erasmus (started in 1987) and others in the US and Asia<br />

have surged, interest in measuring their influence on students has been<br />

growing, resulting in a number <strong>of</strong> interesting studies.<br />

Finally, in this introduction I would also like to share with you the words<br />

<strong>of</strong> the General Secretary <strong>of</strong> the United Nations, Mr. António Guterres,<br />

in his congratulation letter for our anniversary: “At a time <strong>of</strong> great test<br />

for the <strong>international</strong> community, your work is more necessary than ever.<br />

Multilateralism must be strengthened so we can overcome our many<br />

common challenges and build a world <strong>of</strong> peace, prosperity, dignity and<br />

opportunity for all people on a healthy planet.”<br />

Your support to the ideas <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> is a support to our common future.<br />

Our History<br />

The Association was founded in January 1948 at Imperial College,<br />

London, on the initiative <strong>of</strong> the Imperial College Vacation Work Committee.<br />

National Organisations from ten European countries attended this meeting<br />

and became Members, and Mr. James Newby was elected General<br />

Secretary. The geographical coverage soon spread to most <strong>of</strong> Europe<br />

and beyond, as new countries were granted membership. The Association<br />

became a registered body according to Luxembourg law at its General<br />

Conference 2005 in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia.<br />

Each year the <strong>Annual</strong> Conference brings together the representatives <strong>of</strong><br />

these bodies to decide on issues <strong>of</strong> general policy and, with the <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

Co-operating Institutions, to carry out the exchange <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>fers for training.<br />

We have 87 members and co-operating institutions and are present on<br />

each continent. Each national <strong>of</strong>fice is responsible for the administration<br />

<strong>of</strong> the exchange in its own country. Sometimes <strong>IAESTE</strong> national <strong>of</strong>fices<br />

are run by students and academics together, which makes us a unique<br />

organisation working across generations.<br />

Our International Relations<br />

The Association is an independent, non-political and non-governmental<br />

body, in consultative partnership with the United Nations Educational,<br />

Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) and maintains consultative<br />

relationships with the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), the<br />

United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) and the<br />

International Labour Office (ILO).<br />

Our Structure & Network<br />

The Association is a confederation <strong>of</strong> National Committees representing<br />

academics, industry and student spheres <strong>of</strong> interest. Each National<br />

Committee is responsible for the administration <strong>of</strong> the exchange in its<br />

own country. Membership is given after the establishment <strong>of</strong> a National<br />

Committee in accordance with <strong>IAESTE</strong> Statutes and By-laws, together with<br />

a responsible permanent Secretariat. For countries without a National<br />

Committee, it is possible to participate in the exchange as a cooperating<br />

institution.<br />

We are <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

This picture means a lot to us. This was the beginning <strong>of</strong> our <strong>IAESTE</strong> journey<br />

and the French comeback to our great association in Grenoble!<br />

We are thrilled to be back and excited to continue working with you!<br />

New<br />

Countries<br />

Welcome to <strong>IAESTE</strong>!<br />

France,<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> Grenoble France<br />

It is in the heart <strong>of</strong> the French Alps that <strong>IAESTE</strong> is taking root on French<br />

soil. Indeed, Grenoble, France is well known for being one <strong>of</strong> the biggest<br />

technology parks in the country, thanks to its flourishing industry, and wellfunctioning<br />

research institutes in almost every field (Grenoble is ranked<br />

number one in the French research clusters). Thus, Grenoble can become<br />

a significant ally for <strong>IAESTE</strong>.<br />

Our committee, <strong>IAESTE</strong> France Grenoble Alpes is growing fast. It is<br />

managed by students with some support <strong>of</strong> the local universities.<br />

Iceland,<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> Iceland<br />

The <strong>IAESTE</strong> Iceland committee was formed by students with the support <strong>of</strong><br />

universities and mentored by <strong>IAESTE</strong> alumni.<br />

It sure is good to be back! Iceland used to be a part <strong>of</strong> the <strong>IAESTE</strong> family,<br />

but unfortunately, the committee disbanded in 2007/08. Now we have<br />

re-established it and we are ready to get to work!<br />

Five co-operating institutions<br />

joined <strong>IAESTE</strong> between<br />

November 2017 and June <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

Some <strong>of</strong> them are countries that<br />

used to be in the <strong>IAESTE</strong> network<br />

and some are completely new to<br />

the <strong>IAESTE</strong> family.<br />

Malaysia,<br />

The Manipal International University<br />

The <strong>IAESTE</strong> committee is located at the Australian College <strong>of</strong> Kuwait and is<br />

run by the department responsible for external relations.<br />

“It gives me great pleasure to join the <strong>IAESTE</strong> family. The Australian College<br />

<strong>of</strong> Kuwait (ACK) is committed to providing an enriching experience<br />

for future interns in the State <strong>of</strong> Kuwait. Presently, ACK is working to<br />

establish an <strong>of</strong>fice to introduce the programme to students, employers<br />

and key institutions across Kuwait. I look forward to building collaborative<br />

relationships and many successful <strong>years</strong> ahead” Joumana Tasse, the person<br />

in charge <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> Kuwait & ACK Coordinator – Industrial Outreach.<br />

The University <strong>of</strong> Anbar is located in Ramadi, Anbar, Iraq. It was founded<br />

in 1987 with a college <strong>of</strong> education and a college <strong>of</strong> girls’ education and<br />

then expanded until it reached university status in 2011 with 19 colleges.<br />

The first Iraqi students participated in <strong>IAESTE</strong> exchanges this year.<br />

The Manipal International University (MIU) is the youngest <strong>IAESTE</strong> cooperating<br />

institution, having just joined in June <strong>2018</strong>. The MIU is a<br />

fully-fledged Malaysian university <strong>of</strong>fering multidisciplinary programmes<br />

with a focus in the fields <strong>of</strong> Science, Engineering, Business and Mass<br />

Communication. The campus is located in Putra Nilai.<br />

We are <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

<strong>70</strong> <strong>years</strong> <strong>of</strong> promoting <strong>international</strong> <strong>understanding</strong> and working<br />

with students, employers and universities within the <strong>IAESTE</strong> exchange<br />

programme has resulted in 361,105 life-changing experiences. This<br />

past year, 3418 students worked and lived in a country and culture<br />

very different to their own and contributed to their employer’s business<br />

agenda. In 2017 <strong>IAESTE</strong> connected 2200 employers and over 900<br />

High Education Institutions in 85 countries.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> Exchange Programme Development in 2017<br />

2017 was a year <strong>of</strong> challenging changes in the <strong>IAESTE</strong> exchange<br />

programme administration. At the end <strong>of</strong> 2016 we implemented a totally<br />

new IT tool (Exchange Platform, iaeste.net) that enables us to manage the<br />

whole exchange process online, including for employers, students and<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> administrators. Adapting our processes to the new tool required<br />

extra effort from everyone involved in <strong>IAESTE</strong>. However, we are proud to<br />

have provided 361,105 life-changing, life-long experiences since 1948.<br />

In addition to this we are also improving the administration <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

exchange process, promoting the <strong>IAESTE</strong> mission and expanding the<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> network and developing strategic relationships with the UN and<br />

EU. We are working hard to better communicate with <strong>IAESTE</strong> stakeholders<br />

(introducing a new Brand Manual), building and recognising long-term<br />

cooperation with <strong>IAESTE</strong> employers and alumni (including our <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

employer awards).<br />

Internationalisation: abroad and at home<br />

Today, most employers require previous experience before considering<br />

a student, but global competences are also gaining in importance.<br />

International traineeships where a multicultural environment and foreign<br />

languages present additional challenges to develop skills such as<br />

adaptability, interpersonal and communication skills, time management,<br />

confidence and team working. Being part <strong>of</strong> an <strong>international</strong> group<br />

permits trainees to build a network that will help them in their future career.<br />

Promoting<br />

International<br />

Understanding<br />

Exchange Report<br />

Many counties have been also affected by changes in law, procedures<br />

and politics and, unfortunately, we have noticed a slight decrease in our<br />

exchange numbers (by 2%). We have started many initiatives to revert the<br />

downward trend. Thanks to the new tool we can be more flexible and push<br />

the Whole Year Exchange approach, so more and more traineeships are<br />

available not only during the summer period in the Northern Hemisphere,<br />

but also during other months, to meet the expectations <strong>of</strong> students and<br />

employers. The feedback we have received so far is positive and we will<br />

keep developing the <strong>IAESTE</strong> Exchange Platform with aim to be faster, more<br />

reliable and more efficient.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> social reception programmes are famous worldwide. Every summer<br />

many <strong>international</strong> weekend events are organised as well as hundreds<br />

<strong>of</strong> other events that help trainees to better understand the local cultures.<br />

Thousands <strong>of</strong> local volunteers manage <strong>international</strong> evenings, sightseeing<br />

tours, city games, sport activities and much more to help trainees fully<br />

participate in the daily life <strong>of</strong> the local community. This gives an additional<br />

dimension to the <strong>IAESTE</strong> experience.<br />

1948 and 3418 <strong>of</strong> them in 2017, which is comparable to the previous<br />

year.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> exchange is an employer-led programme, meaning students are<br />

Educational Institutions cooperated with <strong>IAESTE</strong> in 2017.<br />

Most trainees worked on R&D projects (55%). Offers in this category<br />

are <strong>of</strong>ten laboratory-based and deal with special work. They entail some<br />

element <strong>of</strong> diagnostic analysis, testing and evaluation and have some<br />

theoretical content. Every third trainee in 2017 performed <strong>of</strong>fice work<br />

(36%), dealt with special project work, possibly in a design <strong>of</strong>fice, in<br />

technical management or in testing services. Field work related to the<br />

production process, where students gain experience in the hands-on<br />

working environment was the least popular (7%).<br />

If you ask an intern coming back from an <strong>IAESTE</strong> internship: “how was<br />

it?” the most likely answer you’re going to get is: “It changed my life!”<br />

Celebrating <strong>70</strong> <strong>years</strong> <strong>of</strong> changing lives made us investigate what it means<br />

for an intern’s career. We asked <strong>IAESTE</strong> alumni what impact their <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

experience had on their pr<strong>of</strong>essional careers. The main findings <strong>of</strong> the<br />

study indicate that <strong>international</strong> experience has a strong developmental<br />

effect on career capital.<br />

Development <strong>of</strong> Career Capital through International<br />

Experience<br />

Involvement in today’s dynamic business environment has increased the<br />

complexity and geographical reach <strong>of</strong> business operations. Critical success<br />

factors for working effectively in an <strong>international</strong> environment have been<br />

categorised in many different ways. The <strong>international</strong> experience <strong>of</strong>fered<br />

by <strong>IAESTE</strong> to students, and also gained by employees working with foreign<br />

students locally is commonly seen as an effective way to develop required<br />

intercultural competencies and as an effective way to acquire career<br />

capital. The resource-based view <strong>of</strong> career capital maintains that it consists<br />

<strong>of</strong> three ways <strong>of</strong> knowing and this framework has been applied in this<br />

research (Chart 1). The knowing how career competencies include personal<br />

benefits such as a global mindset, enhanced intercultural and interpersonal<br />

skills, foreign language fluency, and increased self-confidence. Knowing<br />

whom career competencies stem from the development <strong>of</strong> a worldwide<br />

network <strong>of</strong> associates, including intra- and inter-company pr<strong>of</strong>essional and<br />

social relationships. Knowing why competencies include a crystallised<br />

view <strong>of</strong> values and identity, an <strong>understanding</strong> <strong>of</strong> personal strengths<br />

and weaknesses, clearer career interests and aims, and enhanced selfawareness.<br />

Method & Respondent Group<br />

The online survey was distributed within the <strong>IAESTE</strong> alumni group (mailing<br />

list, social media). <strong>IAESTE</strong> alumni are trainees who have been on a<br />

Chart 1: The resource-based Global Career Competence Model<br />

traineeship abroad and <strong>IAESTE</strong> volunteers. The respondents were asked to<br />

consider the developmental effect <strong>of</strong> their <strong>IAESTE</strong> experience on knowing<br />

how, knowing whom and knowing why - career competencies. The scale<br />

was 0-5, where 0 means that their <strong>IAESTE</strong> experience didn’t affect at all<br />

their career competencies, and 5 meant: “to a very great extent”.<br />

294 respondents from 76 countries shared their points <strong>of</strong> view. 95% <strong>of</strong><br />

them have been on a traineeship abroad. The oldest responder was born<br />

in 1954 and did their internship in 1980, the youngest was born in 1996<br />

and did their internship in 2017. 73% <strong>of</strong> respondents now work in the<br />

<strong>international</strong> environment in a different form (Chart 2). The largest amount<br />

(28%) work as global domestic employees, meaning that they remain in<br />

their home country, but have interaction with individuals from different<br />

countries. One-fourth <strong>of</strong> respondents work and live abroad (expatriates).<br />

12% are global virtual team members and work in a geographically<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Review</strong> <strong>2018</strong>


“I suppose I was not mature enough for the pr<strong>of</strong>essional aspect <strong>of</strong> my<br />

internships, but the whole experience and managing my way through all<br />

<strong>of</strong> them has made me realise what I want to do in life as a pr<strong>of</strong>essional,<br />

but also socially in the same area. I had a very exponential growth in<br />

my career and have a lot <strong>of</strong> responsibilities that I wouldn’t be able to<br />

work on if I hadn’t had my <strong>IAESTE</strong> experience. Thank you <strong>IAESTE</strong>!” [Intern<br />

from Macedonia, internships in Poland (2007), Spain (2008) and Austria<br />

(2009)]. Mostly the aspiration to work in the <strong>international</strong> context and to<br />

work abroad from the knowing why aspect was affected by the <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

internship.<br />

<strong>international</strong> business travelers, who take multiple short <strong>international</strong><br />

business trips to various locations.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> internship impacts the Career Development<br />

potential<br />

The research has found that an <strong>international</strong> work experience provides<br />

opportunities to develop knowing why, knowing how and knowing whom<br />

career competencies, what, however, many <strong>of</strong> us could find as an obvious<br />

outcome. The interesting finding is that the internships mostly impacted the<br />

“Knowing-why” aspect <strong>of</strong> the career competencies, meaning that <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

experience provides interns with the energy, sense <strong>of</strong> purpose, motivation,<br />

and identification with the world <strong>of</strong> work (Chart 3). This finding was also<br />

supported by many qualitative comments. One <strong>of</strong> the respondents said:<br />

Knowing HOW, includes career-relevant skills and work-related<br />

knowledge, and <strong>understanding</strong> what is needed for performance. While<br />

the chance to get pr<strong>of</strong>essional experience connected to the fields <strong>of</strong> study<br />

<strong>of</strong> the intern described in the work <strong>of</strong>fer is usually one <strong>of</strong> the most important<br />

criteria checked by students before deciding on the internship, research<br />

has found that the transversal skills (also called s<strong>of</strong>t skills) such as selfconfidence,<br />

global mindset and intercultural and interpersonal skills are<br />

mostly developed during the internship (Chart 4). Surprisingly, foreign<br />

language skills were not usually a big influence. It can be explained by<br />

the <strong>IAESTE</strong> selection process, where knowledge <strong>of</strong> foreign language is<br />

checked before the internship, so this is usually a skill developed before<br />

the internship starts.<br />

Knowing WHOM consists <strong>of</strong> a range <strong>of</strong> intrafirm, interfirm, pr<strong>of</strong>essional,<br />

and social relations combined in a network and providing information<br />

and channels for self-promotion. This was the less influenced career<br />

development competencies area, and the research found that the emphasis<br />

was on building social relationship skills (Chart 5). As other researchers<br />

have found and can also be used to explain these results - it may be that<br />

the respondents had never even thought <strong>of</strong> their social networks from a<br />

personal benefit (career capital) perspective and that they tended not<br />

to be created consciously with career progression in mind. Additionally,<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> internships are rather short-term assignments and the interns spend<br />

also a significant amount <strong>of</strong> time on social activities with other interns and<br />

local volunteers.<br />

Conclusion<br />

It’s important to mention that the choices <strong>of</strong> method and sample size<br />

indicate that the aim <strong>of</strong> this study is not a statistical generalization.<br />

Instead, this study aimed to give further insight about the <strong>IAESTE</strong> exchange<br />

programme and its benefits and also invited <strong>IAESTE</strong> alumni to reflect on<br />

their experience through the career development potential perspective.<br />

The main findings <strong>of</strong> the study indicate that <strong>international</strong> experience<br />

has a strong developmental effect on career capital and competencies<br />

necessary to work in the <strong>international</strong> environment, which will definitely<br />

enable our Alumni to implement <strong>IAESTE</strong>’s <strong>70</strong> year old mission - to promote<br />

<strong>international</strong> <strong>understanding</strong>, cooperation and trust among students,<br />

academic institutions, employers and the wider community.<br />

The internship showed me that<br />

it is very important for me to<br />

work with people that I know<br />

and also like. Teambuilding<br />

trips are very important. You<br />

will see them everyday and<br />

I guess more <strong>of</strong>ten than your<br />

own family - so being friends<br />

with them is very important.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> traineeship is a great opportunity for aspiring individuals to get<br />

a hands on experience <strong>of</strong> the life <strong>of</strong> a pr<strong>of</strong>essional and also its a perfect<br />

opportunity to realize your own skills and your own interests to seek a<br />

specific domain which suits you best in future as it did for me and now I<br />

hold a Marie Curie Scholarship which funds my PhD. research and has<br />

given me the right platform for my development as an individual and as a<br />

Conference in Berlin, Germany<br />

This year, the <strong>IAESTE</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> Conference in Berlin was very special as we<br />

celebrated our <strong>70</strong>th anniversary. This meant that we had a host <strong>of</strong> special<br />

guests, including former General Secretaries, as well as events recognising<br />

employers and looking back at our history. Around 350 people from more<br />

than 80 countries participated in the conference. It was truly a special,<br />

once in a lifetime event!<br />

Of course, the important business <strong>of</strong> exchanging traineeship opportunities<br />

was also taking place during the conference and in all, 5657 traineeship<br />

<strong>of</strong>fers were exchanged, leading to life-changing experiences for young<br />

people around the world.<br />

In parallel to the exchange sessions, the conference sessions were held on<br />

the <strong>international</strong> level, with one representative <strong>of</strong> each member country<br />

participating. As part <strong>of</strong> the conference sessions, various topics such as<br />

marketing, budget and the new, <strong>international</strong> exchange platform were<br />

discussed. The conference sessions further held elections <strong>of</strong> the board<br />

members as well as the <strong>Annual</strong> Conference host country 2020. The next<br />

conference will be held in Cyprus and in two <strong>years</strong>’ time we will be hosted<br />

by Slovakia.<br />

Other events surrounding the <strong>Annual</strong> Conference were mainly shaped<br />

by the <strong>70</strong>th anniversary <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> International. As part <strong>of</strong> the Welcome<br />

Dinner, the former General Secretaries <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> International were<br />

honoured. Likewise, the International Evening, the colourful, lively<br />

evening, during which all countries present their local culinary specialties,<br />

was designed a little more special this year. Each country was asked to<br />

perform a 2-minute, country-specific performance on the stage provided.<br />

Throughout the evening, we were entertained with all kinds <strong>of</strong> dances,<br />

songs, quizzes and plays.<br />

Pr<strong>of</strong>. Dr. Margret Wintermantel, DAAD President and Honorary President <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Conference speaking at the <strong>2018</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> Conference in Berlin<br />

The conference was rounded <strong>of</strong>f with the traditional Gala Dinner. We<br />

enjoyed excellent food, an interesting accompanying programme,<br />

as well as live music. In addition, a variety <strong>of</strong> awards were bestowed,<br />

including one to the United Arab Emirates for the most creative celebration<br />

<strong>of</strong> the <strong>IAESTE</strong> Day on October 20th. With a full stomach and a wealth<br />

<strong>of</strong> inspiration, the round was dissolved and while some rushed into the<br />

turbulent Berlin nightlife, others said their goodbyes to catch their early<br />

return flight the next morning.<br />

We would like to sincerely thank DAAD for hosting the conference and<br />

making it such a memorable event.<br />

Each year, for the last seven <strong>years</strong>, we have held an alumni conference<br />

in parallel with our annual exchange conference. The idea started as a<br />

way to involve alumni in <strong>IAESTE</strong> beyond their internships. Holding it at the<br />

same time as the exchange conference meant that participants could be<br />

part <strong>of</strong> a much larger event and have more opportunities to meet friends<br />

and make new contacts.<br />

This year’s alumni conference took place in Berlin from 19-22 January.<br />

Not only did participants get to experience the alumni conference, but as<br />

it was <strong>IAESTE</strong>’s <strong>70</strong>th anniversary, they also got to join the special birthday<br />

celebrations. The conference programme included presentations from<br />

alumni on how their <strong>IAESTE</strong> experience affected their careers, opportunities<br />

to meet German employers and the Board <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> A.s.b.l. as well as<br />

workgroups on how alumni can help the association.<br />

35 participants attended for the weekend from 15 different countries,<br />

making it one <strong>of</strong> our most popular alumni conferences. Additionally,<br />

through our alumni supporter pins and donations, we managed to raise<br />

an impressive amount <strong>of</strong> money for our development fund to support new<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> countries develop their programme.<br />

Here is Johan Baijot on his experience at the alumni conference:<br />

“Our members have easily made it to the four corners <strong>of</strong> the world with<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong>, but the opportunity to be at the <strong>Annual</strong> Conference still always<br />

eluded us. It always takes place during January, overlapping with the<br />

exam period at our university, but two <strong>years</strong> ago, our former President<br />

already set his sights on Berlin. It was but a vague idea at the time, until<br />

last autumn when he came back to me saying he and another <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

alumnus were tempted to go. I also ended up registering for the AAC and<br />

we all attended together<br />

Participants at the <strong>2018</strong> Alumni Conference in Berlin, Germany<br />

Arriving there we found out that we knew way more people than we<br />

expected. From old trainees we had met when we had our internships,<br />

people we had met at various conferences and even Yahia from Tunisia told<br />

me ‘hey I know you’, we had a long conversation last April on Facebook<br />

so this was the first time I met him in person. But reconnecting to old friends<br />

is not the only thing the AAC is good for, as it allows you to meet plenty <strong>of</strong><br />

interesting new people and hearing how counties as diverse as Colombia,<br />

North Korea, France, New Zealand see opportunities in <strong>IAESTE</strong>.<br />

We also got the opportunity to meet people who are way more dedicated<br />

to <strong>IAESTE</strong>, as we heard stories that go back more than forty <strong>years</strong>.<br />

Although it was all over so quickly, and at the end <strong>of</strong> the conference there<br />

was no goodbye, but people simply said to each other: See you at next<br />

<strong>years</strong>’ conference in Cyprus! So what about you do you join us next year<br />

as well?”<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Review</strong> <strong>2018</strong><br />

I was invited in my capacity as president <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> A.s.b.l. to present a<br />

lecture at the second foundation day <strong>of</strong> the Federal University <strong>of</strong> Petroleum<br />

Resources in Effurun - FUPRE (Delta State Nigeria). I arrived on Saturday<br />

10th in Abuja and on Sunday 11th in Benin City where I was received at<br />

the airport by the National Secretary <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> Nigeria, Otabor Ahanor<br />

Enoyoze, together with two <strong>IAESTE</strong> trainees, Katharina Leeb and Marlene<br />

Lasser, both <strong>of</strong> whom are doing their traineeships at the University <strong>of</strong> Benin.<br />

From there we went by road to Warri, the capital <strong>of</strong> the Delta State, a one<br />

hour journey.<br />

On Monday 12th I had meetings in Effurun (a town near to Warri where the<br />

university is located) with the Vice Chancellor <strong>of</strong> the University, Pr<strong>of</strong>.Dr.Akii<br />

Ibhadode and the Management team <strong>of</strong> the University. After presenting<br />

me to the participants at the meeting, the Vice Chancellor gave me a short<br />

history <strong>of</strong> the university, while I gave an overview <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong>. The University<br />

was founded in 2007 by the government to develop research and<br />

technical experience in the management <strong>of</strong> their big natural resource, oil.<br />

As well as traditional engineering subjects, such as mechanical, chemical,<br />

electronic and electrical, they have also petroleum engineering. They are<br />

eager to send these students out for <strong>international</strong> training.<br />

In the early afternoon we had an audience with the local King, Ovie<br />

n’Úvwie (King <strong>of</strong> Uvwie community). These are important people for the<br />

local community as they settle possible conflicts between the people <strong>of</strong> the<br />

community. A dinner was held in the evening by the management <strong>of</strong> the<br />

University, giving an opportunity to have informal discussions with them.<br />

The next day, Tuesday 13th March, at 9:00 we had a press conference<br />

with the local press. They asked some questions about my visit, <strong>IAESTE</strong>,<br />

and the importance <strong>of</strong> the <strong>international</strong> traineeship in higher education.<br />

At 10:00 we went in procession from the head <strong>of</strong>fice to the auditorium<br />

where the lecture <strong>of</strong> the second Founder’s Day was taking place. The<br />

Engr (Dr) Victor Obanor, Chief Inspector, Council for the Regulation <strong>of</strong><br />

Engineering in Nigeria, Benin City<br />

ceremony started with the Nigerian National Anthem and the <strong>of</strong>ficial<br />

song <strong>of</strong> the university. After presenting some important people in the<br />

audience (traditional chiefs <strong>of</strong> the different communities, pr<strong>of</strong>essors <strong>of</strong> other<br />

universities and myself) I started the lecture with a presentation <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

and its achievements during these <strong>70</strong> <strong>years</strong>, together with a view <strong>of</strong> future<br />

predictions based on astudy by Sullivan and Frost.<br />

After speaking about the different kinds <strong>of</strong> traineeships observed by the<br />

study <strong>of</strong> the European Union, I emphasised the importance <strong>of</strong> <strong>international</strong><br />

traineeships and the way we treat them in <strong>IAESTE</strong>. The presentation ended<br />

showing the future weight <strong>of</strong> Nigeria in the world economy, again based<br />

on the study <strong>of</strong> Sullivan and Frost. After the lecture we were shown the<br />

practical achievements <strong>of</strong> the university’s students, concluding with a<br />

cultural show where different traditional dance groups <strong>of</strong> the University<br />

performed for us. In the afternoon we started our journey to Benin City.<br />

In the afternoon we had a meeting with the Vice Chancellor <strong>of</strong> the<br />

University <strong>of</strong> Benin. On Wednesday 14 March we travelled to Lagos<br />

where we had a meeting with the Vice Chancellor, Pr<strong>of</strong>. Atayero and the<br />

management <strong>of</strong> the Covenant University, a big private university that is<br />

very much interested in expanding its <strong>international</strong> activities and inviting<br />

foreign student to their campus. In the evening we were travelling to Abuja<br />

and at night we had a meeting with the President <strong>of</strong> the Nigerian Society<br />

<strong>of</strong> Engineers, Eng. Adekunle Mokuolu.<br />

“The visit gave the impression<br />

that <strong>IAESTE</strong> Nigeria is very<br />

well connected and has a good<br />

future.”<br />

The next day we had an appointment with the Director General and<br />

CEO, Eng. Dr. Mohammed Jibirn and the National Board for Technology<br />

Incubation (NBTI) <strong>of</strong> the Federal Ministry <strong>of</strong> Science and Technology.<br />

Thereafter, we went to the Council for the Regulation <strong>of</strong> Engineering in<br />

Nigeria (COREN), where we had a meeting with the registrar, Eng.<br />

W.Kamila Maliki and his staff. The whole programme was very well<br />

organised and all meetings were on time with the excellent management<br />

<strong>of</strong> the host organisation.<br />

The visit gave the impression that <strong>IAESTE</strong> Nigeria is very well connected<br />

and has a good future. There seems to be a great interest in developing<br />

the <strong>IAESTE</strong> programme in Nigeria. The Universities are convinced that<br />

they need a stronger relationship with academic institutions outside <strong>of</strong><br />

Nigeria and are eager to receive foreign students. <strong>IAESTE</strong> Nigeria and its<br />

National Secretary seem to have broad support from their institutions. For<br />

the moment the numbers are limited but with the help <strong>of</strong> the authorities this<br />

can be expanded.<br />

The COREN in charge <strong>of</strong> the curriculum and auditing <strong>of</strong> the engineering<br />

programme in Nigeria are very interested in inviting us again to present<br />

our programme to an even broader audience. Nigeria sometimes has bad<br />

press and is perhaps not so well understood in the rest <strong>of</strong> the world. As a<br />

result, students may not initially be attracted to it as a potential destination.<br />

More effort should be made to increase the visibility <strong>of</strong> Nigeria as an<br />

attractive country for our students to undertake their traineeships. The two<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> trainees I met seemed to be very happy with their experience and<br />

the way it has been organised. They promised me an article for our <strong>Annual</strong><br />

<strong>Review</strong>.<br />

Manager<br />

The <strong>IAESTE</strong> summer Board meeting was held in Kumasi, Ghana from 9-11<br />

July. The invitation came from Dr. Ebenezer Belford <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> Ghana, and<br />

Kwame Nkrumah University <strong>of</strong> Science and Technology (KNUST).<br />

As an <strong>international</strong> association, it is important that we are able to meet and<br />

better understand our members in different continents all over the world.<br />

According to the University World News: Sub-Saharan Africa is expected<br />

to continue to experience strong growth in enrolments as more and more<br />

countries in the region make advances in strengthening their national<br />

systems <strong>of</strong> education and attain higher completion rates in secondary<br />

education. Enrolments are expected to increase from 7.4 million in 2015<br />

to 8.8 million by 2030 and 21.7 million by 2040.<br />

Africa has huge potential for <strong>IAESTE</strong> and we held excellent discussions<br />

with Pr<strong>of</strong>. Kwasi Obiri-Danso, (Vice-Chancellor <strong>of</strong> KNUST) and Pr<strong>of</strong>. Isaac<br />

Dontwi, the Board Chair <strong>of</strong> the <strong>IAESTE</strong> Ghana Board and other <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

Ghana Board members and have gained insight and knowledge that we<br />

hope will help strengthen <strong>IAESTE</strong> in Africa. A highlight <strong>of</strong> the first day was<br />

also a meeting with <strong>IAESTE</strong> trainees who are doing their internship in<br />

Kumasi right now and a very committed team <strong>of</strong> volunteers.<br />

A big thank you to Ebenezer and <strong>IAESTE</strong> Ghana for making us so welcome<br />

and providing with us with an excellent environment for the meeting.<br />

Employers and Universities<br />

The Swiss architecture <strong>of</strong>fice & general planners Burckhardt+Partner<br />

has been cooperating with <strong>IAESTE</strong> Switzerland for more than ten <strong>years</strong>,<br />

welcoming interns in architecture that come from all over the world. During<br />

these <strong>years</strong>, over 40 students were given the chance to gain valuable<br />

work experience and deepen their architectural skills. This wonderful longterm<br />

collaboration has continuously been developed further. Today, B+P<br />

<strong>of</strong>fers <strong>IAESTE</strong> about ten apprenticeship positions all over Switzerland.<br />

This successful alliance has led to a sponsoring partnership which was<br />

established in 2017.<br />

Burckhardt+Partner: Insight <strong>of</strong> the company<br />

For more than 65 <strong>years</strong>, Burckhardt+Partner has been showing a holistic<br />

approach as an architecture and design construction <strong>of</strong>fice. Our core<br />

business focuses on architecture including all facets <strong>of</strong> the construction<br />

engineering. Our project development department and our subsidiary<br />

<strong>of</strong>fices based in Switzerland (Basel, Bern, Geneva, Lausanne and Zurich)<br />

and elsewhere in Europe (Berlin, Grenzach and Stuttgart) complete the<br />

overall <strong>of</strong>fer.<br />

More than 3<strong>70</strong> staff and trainees, aged from 17 to <strong>70</strong>, from around<br />

20 nations with over 15 different native languages – altogether shape<br />

our corporate culture. We maintain an atmosphere <strong>of</strong> respect, tolerance,<br />

openness, commitment and transparency.<br />

We pay attention to detail not only in architecture but also in dealing<br />

with one another. Especially because we are a large team, we try to<br />

match various general conditions with individual employees. We actively<br />

encourage discourse between sites, groups and pr<strong>of</strong>essional fields<br />

with inter-site advanced training programmes, joint events, excursions<br />

and cultural activities. The overall balance must be right – in economic,<br />

pr<strong>of</strong>essional and human terms.<br />

Visit <strong>of</strong> the <strong>of</strong>fice in Zurich<br />

One <strong>of</strong> the Burckhardt+Partner <strong>of</strong>fices is in Zurich, within walking distance<br />

<strong>of</strong> the National <strong>of</strong>fice <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> Switzerland. This <strong>of</strong>fers a great opportunity<br />

for Gaby, our incoming Exchange coordinator, to stop by and meet the<br />

supervisors and staff as well as the current interns staying there.<br />

The <strong>of</strong>fice is located right in the old city centre <strong>of</strong> the town, a very picturesque<br />

work location. In Zurich, 35 employees and our two students, Stavros from<br />

Greece and Karolina from Poland, are involved in current projects and<br />

competitions supervised by Martin. Thanks to the openness <strong>of</strong> Martin’s<br />

team, it is not a problem if the trainee does not speak any German. On<br />

the other hand, he appreciates it if the trainees are knowledgeable in the<br />

newest programming skills for visualization and drafts, something which<br />

also benefits the team during the daily work.<br />

Trainee Alexandru Girtan during his internship at B+P in Zurich<br />

For Karolina it is not her first architecture internship, but still very different<br />

from the one before, as the work here in Switzerland is challenging and<br />

already lots <strong>of</strong> responsibility is assigned to her. Nevertheless, Karolina states<br />

that she finds this approach very interesting, enhancing her development<br />

on a personal and pr<strong>of</strong>essional level.<br />

For Stavros, this is his first practical working experience as well as first stay<br />

abroad. As he started his internship during winter (which was very long<br />

and cold this year), he says that he is now happy that the sunnier and<br />

warmer days are back, so he can enjoy his leisure time outdoors after<br />

the long working days. Both <strong>of</strong> them are looking forward to experience a<br />

fantastic internship and plan to enjoy their stay to the fullest.<br />

“Our collaboration with <strong>IAESTE</strong> is characterised by its long-standing and<br />

successful work based on trust, reliability and effectiveness.<br />

We are well taken care <strong>of</strong> in the pr<strong>of</strong>essional and personal relationship<br />

with <strong>IAESTE</strong> employees. The students they place with us are motivated,<br />

inquisitive and very interested, and with their <strong>international</strong> background,<br />

they contribute to the development <strong>of</strong> our everyday work in the <strong>of</strong>fice.”<br />

Tereza Nadenikova from Czech Republic, current incoming<br />

intern at B+P in Lausanne:<br />

“I started my internship at B+P SA a few weeks ago but I have already<br />

participated in two different projects. The first project was a competition and<br />

the latter is still in progress and revolves around designing and detailing<br />

facade components. Working for B+P includes lots <strong>of</strong> opportunities and<br />

different multi-scale projects with a particular emphasis on all construction<br />

phases (residential buildings, hospitals, etc). What makes working at B+P<br />

SA so great is the ability <strong>of</strong> the firm to function as one team despite the<br />

heterogeneity <strong>of</strong> the people coming from distinct countries with different<br />

backgrounds, which is advantageous - in my opinion, this renders the<br />

environment more creative. One can simply tell that B+P SA employees<br />

are enjoying their work which reflects well on the company itself and<br />

personally, it is a great sign that I have chosen wisely my right place to be.”<br />

Kinga Wiercioch from Poland, incoming intern at B+P in<br />

Bern:<br />

“My <strong>IAESTE</strong> internship took place at the architectural <strong>of</strong>fice<br />

Burckhardt+Partner in Bern. It was supposed to last six months but as the<br />

days passed I liked the experience more and more. So I simply could<br />

not reject the opportunity <strong>of</strong> staying longer and, therefore, extended my<br />

contract for four more months. During a period <strong>of</strong> ten months, I have<br />

not only gained key pr<strong>of</strong>essional experience while working on various<br />

projects, but also significantly improved my designing and s<strong>of</strong>tware skills.<br />

I met incredibly nice and helpful people who made <strong>of</strong>fice hours much<br />

more enjoyable and fun. I would like to thank B+P family and the <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

organisation for making this internship possible.”<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Review</strong> <strong>2018</strong><br />

During the unforgettable <strong>Annual</strong> Conference in Berlin, <strong>IAESTE</strong> celebrated<br />

its <strong>70</strong>th Anniversary and it was the best time to recognise the long-standing<br />

support <strong>of</strong> many institutions for their on-going contribution to society.<br />

Among these institutions was the Łódź University <strong>of</strong> Technology, awarded<br />

for 35 <strong>years</strong> <strong>of</strong> providing traineeships for <strong>international</strong> students.<br />

Established in 1945, the Łódź University <strong>of</strong> Technology (TUL) known<br />

for its achievements in research, science, education and <strong>international</strong><br />

cooperation, is a dynamic and continually evolving technical university.<br />

It’s a great place to study, recognised as a PROStudent University by the<br />

Student Parliament <strong>of</strong> the Republic <strong>of</strong> Poland.<br />

In 2017 TUL International Cooperation Centre was established at TUL to<br />

ramp up the implementation <strong>of</strong> the strategy <strong>of</strong> the <strong>international</strong>isation <strong>of</strong><br />

the University. TUL is proud to have been declared a ‘mobility friendly<br />

university’. It is a leader in student exchange for long-term summer<br />

placements and traineeships abroad within the <strong>IAESTE</strong> programme and<br />

Erasmus+ activities.<br />

The <strong>IAESTE</strong> story at TUL began in 1983, when the Łódź University <strong>of</strong><br />

Technology started playing an active part in the <strong>IAESTE</strong> exchange<br />

programme. During the last 35 <strong>years</strong>, TUL has equally appreciated the<br />

experience <strong>of</strong> our university students travelling abroad and that <strong>of</strong> foreign<br />

students working in its laboratories.<br />

Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Sławomir Wiak, Rector <strong>of</strong> the TUL, considers that “the trainee<br />

programme is a very useful tool to complement our students pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />

training and development. Our people can come in contact with other<br />

working methods, new technologies and establish new personal links. At<br />

the same time, to host students from other parts <strong>of</strong> the world adds value.<br />

A useful cultural exchange and long lasting friendships are developed.” It<br />

must be highlighted that for so many <strong>years</strong> the university authorities have<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> interns at TUL sharing traditional meals<br />

understood the importance <strong>of</strong> <strong>international</strong> internships exchange and have<br />

fully supported the <strong>IAESTE</strong> programme, including huge financial efforts.<br />

For 35 <strong>years</strong>, thanks to the <strong>international</strong>isation <strong>of</strong> study and internships, the<br />

University has been continuously making connections between <strong>international</strong><br />

experience and the development <strong>of</strong> key personal characteristics such as<br />

tolerance (open-mindedness and acceptance <strong>of</strong> other), creativity, initiative,<br />

empathy, respect etc. Our students receive these benefits – they are almost<br />

endless… more and more companies are realising that they need people<br />

with experience around the world, who can speak different languages,<br />

can adapt easily into other cultures and people, and bring to their jobs<br />

sensibility and a sensitivity for other people.<br />

On behalf <strong>of</strong> students received and sent from TUL and further employers we<br />

would like to say a big thank you, Łódź University <strong>of</strong> Technology!<br />

extremely talented interns on an exchange programme where they are not<br />

only exposed to technology but also to a plethora <strong>of</strong> cultural experiences.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> has always made it easy for us to co-ordinate with them right<br />

from the word go. They make it extremely convenient to select interns for<br />

our requirements. <strong>IAESTE</strong> ensures that the interns not only have valuable<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Review</strong> <strong>2018</strong>


Employers and Universities<br />

“China is going to become an <strong>international</strong> education & cultural exchange<br />

hub by 2020”, announced China’s <strong>of</strong>ficials in 2012. Believe it or not, since<br />

then, it is attracting hundreds <strong>of</strong> thousands <strong>of</strong> foreign talents and students<br />

from across the world.<br />

More foreign talents are coming to China than ever before. China attracts<br />

more <strong>international</strong> students and foreign young talents than any other Asian<br />

country and already ranks third globally, behind the United States and the<br />

United Kingdom. On the other side, according to UNESCO, over 801,000<br />

Chinese students pursued their higher education studies abroad in 2016.<br />

But… how is the <strong>IAESTE</strong> organisation in China playing its role, following<br />

one <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong>’s missions and combining it with the Chinese government’s<br />

<strong>international</strong>isation strategy 2020? <strong>IAESTE</strong> Mission: to promote<br />

<strong>international</strong> <strong>understanding</strong>, cooperation and trust among students,<br />

academic institutions, employers and wider community<br />

Chinese companies<br />

Most Chinese companies do not have problems doing business overseas,<br />

but they do have trouble in communicating with their foreign partners.<br />

Generally, most <strong>of</strong> them know how to communicate in English, but they<br />

are lacking an <strong>understanding</strong> <strong>of</strong> western culture and values. In reverse,<br />

foreigners think that the language gap will be the only problem to<br />

overcome in order to work with their Chinese partners, but they encounter<br />

challenges they never anticipated.<br />

Already having a great vision in the future <strong>of</strong> China, Dr. Richard Wu<br />

brought the <strong>IAESTE</strong> organisation to China in 2002. Since then, Dr. Wu and<br />

the <strong>IAESTE</strong> China team are helping <strong>IAESTE</strong> employers to better understand<br />

western thinking, values and culture. It does not only play a cultural role,<br />

but also a consulting and mediator role on how to attract foreign talent<br />

to work for Chinese corporations. If we look at one <strong>of</strong> our main partners,<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> China’s <strong>IAESTE</strong> Day <strong>70</strong>th Anniversary events included a traditiional<br />

Chinese calligraphy class. <strong>IAESTE</strong> China took third place in the <strong>IAESTE</strong> Day<br />

innovation competition<br />

Wanhua Chemical Group who joined <strong>IAESTE</strong> in 2004. <strong>IAESTE</strong>’s main<br />

exchange programme helped them to engage globally and in 2015, they<br />

started <strong>IAESTE</strong> Career Global Partner programme to engage the <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

Alumni community by providing to them working opportunities in China<br />

and in their worldwide positions.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> Foreign Young Talents in China<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> foreign talents do not only participate in the usual internship<br />

programme by improving their technical skills, in China, <strong>IAESTE</strong> foreign<br />

talents are also developing their cultural awareness, people and leadership<br />

skills. The <strong>IAESTE</strong> China team, a mix <strong>of</strong> foreign and Chinese employees,<br />

helps them to minimize culture shock and make their <strong>IAESTE</strong> experience<br />

enjoyable but also educational, starting from their first day in China.<br />

Thanks to the <strong>IAESTE</strong> experience in China, some <strong>IAESTE</strong> foreign talents<br />

are returning for full time employment. This is the case <strong>of</strong> Ana Maria Radu,<br />

from Romania, a graduate from “Ion Mincu” University <strong>of</strong> Architecture<br />

and Urbanism, Bucharest. “I took my <strong>IAESTE</strong> internship in China in 2016<br />

and decided to come back after my graduation. Here there are plenty<br />

<strong>of</strong> opportunities, you meet lots <strong>of</strong> interesting entrepreneurs and you can<br />

develop your leadership skills faster than other countries”.<br />

Chinese Universities & Chinese students<br />

“More Chinese students set to study overseas” was a headline by The<br />

Telegraph on March 21st <strong>2018</strong>. And yes… this is a reality happening<br />

now in China. Chinese University students are becoming more interested in<br />

studying in a foreign country. But it is not easy to take the first step. Thanks<br />

to <strong>IAESTE</strong> in China, Chinese University students have different opportunities<br />

to taste <strong>IAESTE</strong>. How? By participating in cultural activities together with<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> foreign talents; by attending the <strong>IAESTE</strong> English programme; by<br />

engaging them to attend different seminars and workshops; by taking an<br />

internship at the <strong>IAESTE</strong> <strong>of</strong>fice in Shanghai; or just meeting the <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

Alumni.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> also helps Chinese Universities to become <strong>international</strong>ly more<br />

reputable and help them to understand the education standards in western<br />

Universities and the foreign student mindset.<br />

In China, we are accomplishing 100% in meeting <strong>IAESTE</strong>’s Mission:<br />

to promote <strong>international</strong> <strong>understanding</strong>, cooperation and trust among<br />

students, academic institutions, employers and wider community. If you<br />

would like to know more about China, cultural awareness, opportunities<br />

with our Chinese employers, our special programmes, etc, you are<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> Nepal<br />

Inauguration Ceremony <strong>of</strong> the reconstruction project<br />

It was an exciting new project for <strong>IAESTE</strong> to be involved in, 39 trainees from<br />

24 countries spent four weeks in Nepal helping to build houses for those<br />

that lost them in the recent earthquake that caused so much devastation<br />

and loss. Volunteers from around the world made a real difference to the<br />

lives <strong>of</strong> those they helped.<br />

The Laprak Model Village Settlement project was led by NRNA. Laprak<br />

was the epicentre <strong>of</strong> the deadly earthquake in 2015. The project site was<br />

roughly 3000 metres above sea level with no proper road connections<br />

or electricity. Because it is so difficult to reach, people in Laprak had no<br />

machinery and limited supplies to help rebuild their homes; all construction<br />

must be done by hand.<br />

“The interns gave very<br />

encouraging feedback, some<br />

calling it a life-changing<br />

experience.”<br />

The <strong>IAESTE</strong> Interns made a real difference in Laprak. Due to the involvement<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> interns in such a challenging national project <strong>of</strong> reconstruction,<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> Nepal was well recognised by the government and the public<br />

in Nepal. The <strong>IAESTE</strong> interns’ participation in reconstruction was widely<br />

applauded by the Honourable Deputy Prime Minister and Minister <strong>of</strong><br />

Education <strong>of</strong> Nepal on June 14 in Kathmandu when the Deputy Prime<br />

Minister welcomed the interns during a reception in Kathmandu.<br />

All 39 interns had a real opportunity to apply their knowledge in the field<br />

<strong>of</strong> civil engineering, architecture and mechanical engineering in order to<br />

advance the project. The employer expressed a high level <strong>of</strong> satisfaction<br />

<strong>of</strong> the interns. Though the nature <strong>of</strong> project was humanitarian, the interns<br />

were compensated for their work through transportation, food, and<br />

accommodation during their entire internship. The Civil Initiative, NRNA<br />

and <strong>IAESTE</strong> Nepal jointly compensated the trainees.<br />

The interns gave very encouraging feedback, some calling it a life-changing<br />

experience. The project has perhaps added a new value to <strong>IAESTE</strong> as an<br />

organisation making a difference to the lives <strong>of</strong> people going beyond the<br />

traditional exchange system <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong>. <strong>IAESTE</strong> Nepal is thankful to the<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> Board and those 19 <strong>IAESTE</strong> member countries who cooperated<br />

with this project.<br />

TT-As Architecture and Construction JSC (http://tt-as.vn/) is one <strong>of</strong> the<br />

leading Architecture and Construction Companies in Vietnam. With<br />

over 20 <strong>years</strong> <strong>of</strong> experience and more than 100 projects completed, TT-<br />

Associates is proud to be among those that shape the landscape <strong>of</strong> the<br />

future.<br />

TT-As has been recognised with numerous titles, including Top 10 BCI<br />

Asia architecture company for the <strong>years</strong> 2008, 2009, 2010, 2016 and<br />

2017; and many other architecture prizes. For nearly 10 <strong>years</strong>, TT-As has<br />

been an important partner <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> Vietnam in receiving and supervising<br />

<strong>international</strong> students for <strong>IAESTE</strong> internships at TT-As.<br />

“International students accepted by the TT-As through <strong>IAESTE</strong> are<br />

welcomed and clearly assigned to work. We organise a short meeting<br />

on the first working day <strong>of</strong> each student to welcome and explore their<br />

individual capacity and strengths. Through this, we will provide them with<br />

the appropriate projects to help them develop their ability. The work may<br />

be a conceptual proposal for hotel or residential projects; or technical<br />

implementation <strong>of</strong> ongoing projects.<br />

For all <strong>IAESTE</strong> <strong>international</strong> students, we suggest them doing a presentation<br />

to share about themselves, universities, countries, typical culture, and<br />

especially the projects, methods and research findings in which they have<br />

participated. As a result, the architects and engineers <strong>of</strong> TT-As understand<br />

more about them, which has created the friendly and open relationship<br />

between TT-As’ staff and <strong>IAESTE</strong> students.<br />

In addition, whenever we visit construction sites or explore new locations,<br />

we also arrange for <strong>IAESTE</strong> <strong>international</strong> students to join us so that they can<br />

learn more about construction works in Vietnam.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> International students have the strengths <strong>of</strong> teamwork, presentation<br />

skills and self-confidence in their work. They have a positive working<br />

attitude, and desire to contribute to the projects and the company. The<br />

training programmes <strong>of</strong> <strong>international</strong> universities are also very advanced,<br />

so the students are well trained by their schools. Our employees have<br />

the opportunity to exchange careers and reinforce their expertise.<br />

Additionally, it is also an opportunity for TT-As’s staff to practice foreign<br />

languages and exchange cultural differences between countries.<br />

So far, the cooperation between TT-As and <strong>IAESTE</strong> has been going very<br />

smoothly. Hopefully, in the future, this cooperation will be strengthened<br />

and expanded in more aspects. Not only does TT-As want to receive<br />

<strong>international</strong> students but we also hope to send our architects and<br />

engineers abroad through the <strong>IAESTE</strong> internship programme.<br />

Past Trainees at TT-As:<br />

“The internship at TT-As made me a lot more sociable and open to<br />

different people; allowed me to gain an insight into working in an <strong>of</strong>fice<br />

environment. Great overall life experience, seeing different culture, ways<br />

<strong>of</strong> working and facing many different challenges along the way whist<br />

meeting some incredible people and sharing amazing stories. Regarding<br />

civil engineering, I did gain some good experience.”<br />

- Mr. Brian Gavin, <strong>IAESTE</strong> Alumni at TT-As, 2017<br />

“I gained a lot <strong>of</strong> experience in architectural design. The company has<br />

commissioned me a really big and important project. I have even tried the<br />

presentation and defense <strong>of</strong> the project in front <strong>of</strong> the client. Working at<br />

the <strong>of</strong>fice was absolutely great. Everyone at TT-As was very nice to me!”<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Review</strong> <strong>2018</strong><br />

Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (UFOP) is one <strong>of</strong> the first partners <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> in Brazil. The partnership has been going on for more than 30<br />

<strong>years</strong>. UFOP is located in the state <strong>of</strong> Minas Gerais, in the southeastern<br />

part <strong>of</strong> Brazil. There are three campuses located throughout the state: in<br />

Ouro Preto, the first place in Brazil to be considered a World Cultural<br />

Heritage by UNESCO; in Mariana, the first capital <strong>of</strong> Minas Gerais; and<br />

in João Monlevade, located in the “Steel Valley”.<br />

The partnership with <strong>IAESTE</strong> has been very important to the University. It<br />

contributes to enhance <strong>international</strong>isation, giving students the opportunity<br />

to have a practical experience abroad and the academic community<br />

to host <strong>international</strong> interns at UFOP. In addition, it makes possible the<br />

exchange with countries in which the University does not have bilateral<br />

agreements yet.<br />

UFOP has so far been able to provide opportunities for 30 students each<br />

year to travel abroad for internships through <strong>IAESTE</strong>, in more than 25<br />

countries. One remarkable experience was with Felipe Barros Dias, a<br />

Civil Engineering student that went to Poland in 2015. Due to his great<br />

performance, Rzeszow University <strong>of</strong> Technology proposed an <strong>international</strong><br />

project and UFOP signed the first agreement with a Polish institution, which<br />

has successfully been in existence since June 2016.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> interns at UFOP have a high quality practical training experience<br />

at an institution that gathers tradition and innovation. They have access to<br />

all the University’s facilities, including a scholarship and a free Portuguese<br />

language course. In addition, students take advantage to live in a historical<br />

and beautiful region <strong>of</strong> Brazil, with an amazing biodiversity and unique<br />

cultural and student life.<br />

Most <strong>of</strong> our student’s internships are in Biology, Engineering, Chemistry,<br />

Communication, Management, Physics and Mathematics areas.<br />

cook Pão de Queijo, a typical snack from Minas Gerais<br />

An example <strong>of</strong> the projects is the “Math Trail”, part <strong>of</strong> a research in<br />

etnomathematics developed in the hills <strong>of</strong> Ouro Preto by Pr<strong>of</strong>essors Daniel<br />

Orey and Milton Rosa, who emphasise the excellent contribution <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

interns have brought to the project.<br />

UFOP has received students from countries such as China, Colombia,<br />

Ecuador, Germany, Jordan, Oman, Sweden, Switzerland, who have<br />

considered their experiences remarkable and life-changing. The institution<br />

intends to expand the cooperation with <strong>IAESTE</strong>, through ABIPE, in order to<br />

increase opportunities <strong>of</strong> practical experience and cultural enrichment to<br />

national and <strong>international</strong> students as well as continuing to contribute to a<br />

history <strong>of</strong> success <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> in Brazil.<br />

Journey into the Himalayas in Nepal<br />

In June <strong>of</strong> 2017 I set <strong>of</strong>f on my <strong>IAESTE</strong> internship to Laprak; a small village<br />

in the Himalayas <strong>of</strong> Nepal, and the epicentre <strong>of</strong> the earthquake which hit<br />

the country in April 2015. Along with 41 other Engineering students from<br />

across the EU, the purpose <strong>of</strong> our work was to aid in the building and<br />

development <strong>of</strong> a model settlement for the villagers <strong>of</strong> Laprak.<br />

Landing in Kathmandu one day before our trip to the site, we all met<br />

at a hotel and got along instantly. It was great to meet and work with<br />

students from over 22 countries. After two buses, a hike, and two hours in<br />

a tractor trailer, we arrived to the campsite late at night and were given a<br />

warm welcome by the locals before being shown to the ten-person tents we<br />

would call home for the next four weeks.<br />

Working alongside members <strong>of</strong> the Nepali army as well as locals, our<br />

work consisted <strong>of</strong> both manual labour in laying the foundations for the<br />

newly-designed earthquake resistant homes, as well as <strong>of</strong>fering and<br />

implementing some technical suggestions on improvements which could<br />

be made to the project, including health and safety, and logistics.<br />

All-in-all, this placement was an unforgettable and eye-opening month<br />

for me. Not only did I get to know first-hand the warm and welcoming<br />

nature <strong>of</strong> the Nepali culture, but I also learned a lot from my fellow student<br />

volunteers. I have no doubt that the perspective and experience gained<br />

from this placement will stay with me for the rest <strong>of</strong> my life.<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> Students<br />

On the 9th <strong>of</strong> February <strong>2018</strong> I took <strong>of</strong>f from Austria to spend my 8 week<br />

internship at the University <strong>of</strong> Benin-City in Nigeria. It was my first time ever<br />

to go to Africa and the excitement was big.<br />

I was not afraid about the long time away from home, or the fact that I<br />

would have to communicate in English, which is not my mother tongue, but<br />

due to the fact that I did not “prepare” myself with reading books, articles<br />

and reports about Nigeria or Africa in general, I was kind <strong>of</strong> overwhelmed<br />

in my first week. Everything was very different from what I am used to, and<br />

as stupid as it may sound, that starts with the colour <strong>of</strong> the skin.<br />

Of course I knew, that I was going to go to Africa and that there would<br />

not be a lot <strong>of</strong> white skinned people there, but knowing beforehand and<br />

feeling and experiencing it for the first time in real life, are two very different<br />

things. All the attention you get everywhere you go, people staring at you,<br />

shouting “Oyibo” (which means “white” in the local tongue) and <strong>of</strong> course<br />

the culinary and cultural differences, those were the little struggles I had in<br />

my first weeks. But they were easy to overcome with all the nice people<br />

there and the activities and events which took place.<br />

It is impossible not to make friends on the way when you are going for<br />

an adventure like this, no matter if you are an extrovert and talk to people<br />

easily or not (like me). Of course it can be a little difficult in the beginning,<br />

but almost every Nigerian wants to get to know you, so you just have to<br />

open up a little bit and choose.<br />

As I am writing these lines, I am spending my last days <strong>of</strong> my 3-months<br />

internship in Nigeria. It has been a time <strong>of</strong> ups and downs, hopes and<br />

challenges, laughing and crying (more laughing for sure and crying<br />

mainly because <strong>of</strong> the spicy food!). As I chose a rather uncommon period<br />

for my internship, from February to April, there was only one other <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

intern around. It was a very intense and exciting time for both <strong>of</strong> us. I was<br />

doing my internship at the Phytomedicine Unit at the University <strong>of</strong> Benin<br />

and was hoping to get an additional input for my studies in Biotechnology,<br />

but unfortunately some aspect <strong>of</strong> my work got postponed and I ended up<br />

doing mainly clinical studies on rats and mice rather than getting a deeper<br />

insight into ethnobotany or drug development.<br />

The sky is the limit. Climbing a tree house in Lekki Conservation Centre in<br />

Lagos<br />

However, one <strong>of</strong> the advantages <strong>of</strong> being a foreigner in Nigeria is that so<br />

many doors were wide open for me and many researchers were eager to<br />

show me what they were doing. I could assist one pr<strong>of</strong>essor with his organ<br />

bath experiments in pharmacology. Another researcher took me on a field<br />

trip to his farm where he introduced me to some medicinal plants and we<br />

prepared a typical farm breakfast, roasted yam with palm oil. I even joined<br />

Marlene, the other intern, on her project on waste management on market<br />

places inspired by the ISO14001 for environment-friendly companies.<br />

Above and below: The Austrian artist Susanne Wenger settled down in<br />

Nigeria, became a Yoruba priestess in the Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove and<br />

created this mystic place together with local artists.<br />

I had countless teachers who tried to teach me not only Pidgin English, but<br />

also some words in local languages like Benin, Yoruba or Igbo. I enjoyed<br />

making people laugh and impressing them with the little language skills I<br />

had, which they <strong>of</strong>ten didn’t expect from me as an Oyibo (a white person).<br />

Even though other doors, like moving around the country just on your own<br />

or going somewhere unnoticed, were harder to open, the local committee<br />

tried to push and make the best <strong>of</strong> my experience.<br />

Good times. Enjoying the beach during a weekend in Lagos.<br />

Together we attended countless ceremonies and events, went for wonderful<br />

weekend trips and explored the rich Nigerian cuisines and cultures. Dishes<br />

that I had only read about in novels <strong>of</strong> Nigerian authors like Chimamanda<br />

Adichie or Chigozie Obioma, finally got a taste and shape: joll<strong>of</strong> rice,<br />

egusi soup, pounded yam, pepper soup or suya are just a few examples<br />

<strong>of</strong> the endless list <strong>of</strong> dishes that I could try.<br />

Nigeria is full <strong>of</strong> things to explore and to marvel about. It’s a country with a<br />

complex history, full <strong>of</strong> chiefs and kings, who now have lost their political<br />

powers, but still are spiritual leaders – the Oba <strong>of</strong> Benin being one <strong>of</strong> the<br />

most important ones. Nigeria, the Giant <strong>of</strong> Africa – political and economic<br />

wise, is so big and diverse that I believe I could only grasp bits and pieces<br />

<strong>of</strong> this fascinating, vibrant and colourful country.<br />

Mainly thanks to <strong>IAESTE</strong> Nigeria who always tried to explain when we<br />

were just wondering, and our European minds could not make sense <strong>of</strong><br />

all that was happening around us. They also showed us how to make<br />

things work, in a country where constant power supply is still a challenge,<br />

corruption appears to be widespread and security for foreigners is a<br />

concern for many (especially in the oil-rich areas and northern parts <strong>of</strong><br />

the country – yet, with the recommendation <strong>of</strong> a local guide, you have<br />

freedom to move everywhere). I learned how important the work <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

is, not only for me who had an exciting and intriguing time during my<br />

internship and for a better <strong>understanding</strong> <strong>of</strong> each other across countries<br />

and cultures, but also for people who try to move something in their own<br />

country and try to do things in a right way.<br />

Elisabeth Dirninger,<br />

Trainee,<br />

Opposite: On top <strong>of</strong> the Villarica Volcano, close to Pucon<br />

A couple <strong>of</strong> weeks ago, I returned home from Chile with mixed feelings,<br />

on one hand I was sad I had to return and on the other hand I was very<br />

happy and grateful for all the experiences, adventures and new skills I<br />

could bring back to Austria.<br />

My <strong>IAESTE</strong> internship in Temuco was a true lifetime experience and<br />

taking the chance <strong>of</strong> going abroad with <strong>IAESTE</strong>, I can recommend to<br />

everybody with an open mind and flexibility. The application for an<br />

<strong>IAESTE</strong> internship is very straight forward, not too much bureaucracy and<br />

the <strong>IAESTE</strong> members are very well trained, helpful and motivated. Once<br />

I got in contact with <strong>IAESTE</strong> Chile I had the same experience there. I did<br />

my internship at the Universidad de la Frontera which distinguishes it from<br />

other internships in the industry. Therefore, I was not only welcomed to<br />

Chile by the local <strong>IAESTE</strong> committee but also by the mobility program<br />

for <strong>international</strong> students <strong>of</strong> the university. I was welcomed to join their<br />

activities to get to know the university and the surroundings.<br />

During my internship, I was working in Innovation and Transfer node <strong>of</strong><br />

the Macro Faculty. My task was to do research in lithium, as Chile has<br />

the biggest accessible reserves in the world, the market is growing and<br />

the university wants to play a role in this development. After two weeks <strong>of</strong><br />

research my supervisor and I went to Santiago to participate in a Lithium<br />

Forum. This was probably one <strong>of</strong> my biggest highlights, we got to see<br />

many presentations from very influential people from industry, economy<br />

and politics, we asked them questions and got a few contacts for future<br />

projects at the university. After this experience, I was asked to prepare a<br />

presentation to pr<strong>of</strong>essors in the university. In this period, I gained selfesteem<br />

and learned a lot about leading meetings and presentations,<br />

creating new projects and trusting in my ideas. Finally, we formed a group<br />

<strong>of</strong> researchers that will now, based on my work, apply to a lithium company<br />

for a project. I was very glad that my work felt like I did something useful.<br />

However, my two months in Chile were not only about work. I lived in a<br />

young host family with a six-year-old daughter and a little dog. I had my<br />

private room but I was also involved in the family life. We ate together<br />

every day, did the household, went out for dinner and went to visit family<br />

or see some <strong>of</strong> the surroundings <strong>of</strong> Temuco. Twice we went skiing to one <strong>of</strong><br />

the volcanos, so I could teach them my Austrian skiing skills.<br />

On the weekends, I mostly took a bus to Pucon to go kayaking, ski touring<br />

or hiking. I was amazed by how friendly and helpful Chileans are when<br />

it comes to driving your shuttle for the kayaking trip or lending you a boat<br />

and paddle. I made a lot <strong>of</strong> friends even in this short time. The nature<br />

is simply stunning! Wherever you go, you can always see at least one<br />

volcano in the distance! The rivers are clear and big, the native forests in<br />

the national parks are beautiful and the flora is very different, which makes<br />

it so special.<br />

My biggest outdoor highlight was ski touring up Villarica volcano on a<br />

beautiful sunny day and at the top staring into the crater and listening to<br />

the sounds <strong>of</strong> the ice chunks hitting the lava. There was a lot <strong>of</strong> smoke, so<br />

we couldn’t see the lava, but simply standing there was impressive.<br />

The climate was a little tough sometimes, especially in July and August<br />

there was a lot <strong>of</strong> rain and it was quite cold most <strong>of</strong> the time. By September<br />

the weather got nicer, I could see the sun more <strong>of</strong>ten and spring was on its<br />

way as Chile seemed to wake up from the winter sleep.<br />

Summing up, my time in Chile changed me and I am grateful for it. I<br />

would love to return to Chile soon to get to know more about this stunning<br />

country, its people and its nature.<br />

Volunteers from <strong>IAESTE</strong> Ghana at the <strong>IAESTE</strong> summer board meeting<br />

I am Philip Lincoln Blavo and currently the head summer reception<br />

coordinator for <strong>IAESTE</strong> Ghana. I have been part <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> for three <strong>years</strong><br />

now. Myself and the reception team are in charge <strong>of</strong> meeting the foreign<br />

interns from all <strong>of</strong> the world at the airport and taking them to the <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

apartment.<br />

We send each and every one to their work place and make sure they are<br />

familiar with the route to the workplace before they start going to work on<br />

their own. Being part <strong>of</strong> the reception team involves commitment, time<br />

consciousness, <strong>understanding</strong>, an open personality and finally, patience.<br />

The love and commitment I have for <strong>IAESTE</strong> will never go away.<br />

Volunteering for <strong>IAESTE</strong> has many amazing and exciting moments, such<br />

as meeting new people, learning about different cultures, meeting new<br />

employers from different companies, having fun and best <strong>of</strong> all going for<br />

trips to different cities in Ghana.<br />

A volunteers<br />

perspective<br />

In the future, it is my vision to be one <strong>of</strong> the best business poultry and<br />

vegetable farmers in Ghana and also to continue to be part <strong>of</strong> <strong>IAESTE</strong> in<br />

whatever way I can.<br />

Paddy McConnell, Senior Planning Engineer, Boliden, Tara<br />

Mines:<br />

“Our <strong>IAESTE</strong> students have generally been in their later <strong>years</strong> <strong>of</strong> their<br />

studies and have been <strong>of</strong> considerable help in many ways. Our <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

students have been working with implementing and designing procedures<br />

and routines for working with new computer programmes such as Deswik<br />

(mining graphics design and integrated scheduling s<strong>of</strong>tware), iSURE<br />

(Sandvik tunnel drilling and blasting design s<strong>of</strong>tware), and many others.<br />

Also some <strong>of</strong> these students have prior experience <strong>of</strong> A3 sheet project<br />

processes and have helped in working with task groups to improve<br />

efficiencies in mining activities. In our experience, an <strong>IAESTE</strong> mining<br />

student has been capable <strong>of</strong> taking on any complicated mining and<br />

computer projects that were assigned to them.”<br />

Anamarija Alagušić, Structural engineer, Zagreb, Croatia:<br />

In summer 2017 I had an incredible opportunity to go to Cyprus, for a sixweek<br />

long <strong>IAESTE</strong> internship. I trained at the Sewerage Board <strong>of</strong> Limassol<br />

– Amathus (SBLA), under supervision and guidance <strong>of</strong> Mr. Michalis<br />

Vryonides, where I have learned more about the construction, operation,<br />

and maintenance <strong>of</strong> the public sewerage and stormwater drainage system.<br />

I was welcomed very nicely, the staff was helpful and friendly during my<br />

entire stay. It was really a pleasure to spend time with them and learn<br />

from them. This internship provided me with valuable experience which<br />

will benefit my future career as a young civil engineer.<br />

Thanks to internship in SBLA I have expanded my knowledge in this<br />

specific field <strong>of</strong> Civil Engineering, improved my language skills, but also<br />

met students from other countries and experienced wonderful Cypriot<br />

culture and lifestyle. After my return to Croatia, I graduated in Structural<br />

Engineering at the Faculty <strong>of</strong> Civil Engineering, University <strong>of</strong> Zagreb and at<br />

the moment I’m working in a small firm that deals with reconstruction and<br />

maintenance <strong>of</strong> cultural heritage. My time spent in Cyprus is something<br />

that I will always remember because it has enriched me in so many ways.<br />

At the end I would like to thank SBLA for its participation in the <strong>IAESTE</strong><br />

exchange programme, allowing students to acquire an experience <strong>of</strong> great<br />

importance for their further education and future pr<strong>of</strong>ession.<br />
