What is BEST?

Board of European Students of Technology, BEST, is a constantly growing non-profit and non-governmental organisation. Since 1989, we provide communication, cooperation and exchange possibilities for students of technology and natural sciences all over Europe.

BEST is formed by Local BEST Groups (LBGs) and is connected by committees (departments) and the international board. The LBGs contribute to the organization and the promotion of learning events, cultural exchanges, workshops and other BEST events to the students in their universities. Currently, 92 LBGs in 33 countries are creating a growing, well organised, powerful, young and innovative student network.

BEST strives to help European students of technology to become more internationally minded by reaching a better understanding of European cultures and developing capacities to work on an international basis. Therefore, we create opportunities for the students to meet and learn from one-another through our academic and non-academic events and educational symposia.
"Learning makes the master", but the final goal is a good working place, and therefore, we offer services like an international career centre to broaden the horizons for the choice on the job market.

Our priority is to offer high quality services for students all over Europe. Thus, we manage to bring all the partners in the "student - company - university" triangle closer.
