Why to join us

A very positive aspect is the opportunity to exchange ideas and cultural differences with other students from all over Europe, which often result in international friendships. Another advantage is that participating in the activities improves soft-skills, like communicational and organizational skills and language proficiency. Nowadays the university curricula do not contain any practice in these skills. On the whole, EESTEC provides electrical engineering and computer science students with a broader and more international view on their possibilities and future responsibilities.

The primary aim of EESTEC is to promote and develop international contacts and the exchange of ideas. To fulfill this aim traveling is essential. Imagine the situation: you have spent five years at university and you get your degree, you are a real engineer now, but you have never been abroad all this time. Poor engineer... you have definitely missed something. There are many good reasons for looking abroad: you become more open-minded, you get to know new people, you improve your English or other languages, you once see your own environment's good and bad sides from another point of view and you will have fun.

Some will ask now: How to do all this, if I can't afford it? For you, it means that you only have to pay for the travel costs.
