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 />

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 />

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 />

361,105 students have gained work experience abroad with <strong>IAESTE</strong> since<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 />
selected according to employers’ requirements. 2216 employers & 962<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 />

“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>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 />

Chart 4: Knowing HOW - <strong>IAESTE</strong> internship helps to develop self-confidence<br />
and global mindset<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 />

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 />

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 />

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

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 />

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 />

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

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 />

The experience <strong>of</strong> working with the Local Committee in Manipal has been<br />
amazing. The <strong>IAESTE</strong> team always puts its best foot forward and brings<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 />
technical experience but also a well-curated cultural experience that does<br />
full justice to the famed Indian hospitality ensuring that they have the<br />
experience <strong>of</strong> a lifetime.”<br />

valuable experience, but also provides more opportunities to permanent<br />
employment seekers. Added to that, the research fuelled by <strong>IAESTE</strong> India’s<br />
associations with Manipal University in application-based, highly relevant<br />
fields make <strong>IAESTE</strong> a one-stop shop for all technological needs, besides<br />
providing our interns with a cultural immersion while making them feel<br />
completely at home. This summarises <strong>IAESTE</strong> India’s vision and drive.<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 />

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 />

Talking to people with other cultural and ethnic backgrounds, is one <strong>of</strong> the<br />
most informative activities for me. You get to know so many details, things<br />
you had no idea about and your whole <strong>understanding</strong> <strong>of</strong> the country and<br />
the world in general turns upside down but gets clearer in the process.<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 />

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 />

Nigeria, became a Yoruba priestess in the Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove and<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 />

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 />

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 />
