EESTEC is a working group of the local EE Student union ("Fachschaft" in German) of the RWTH Aachen University.

Belgrade

Local committee Belgrade was founded in 2000. and has become one of the best organized committees with a lot of active members. Since the foundation, we were hosts of numerous exchanges and workshops. Last year, we organized exchange during Elektrijada, annual gathering of more than a thousand of EECS students, workshop GoFarming! and EESTEC Chairpersons' Meeting – ECM which is the second most important event in EESTEC. EESTEC LC Belgrade impact the life of local students of EECS (Electrical Engineering and Computer Science) a lot; only in 2007 we organized two programming contests in cooperation with the company Top Coder where winners got a practical experience as well as valuable awards, then motivational weekend for members in Bajina Basta, several sports and bbq gatherings and dancing school in due to form better relations among members. One of the most important events for students of technology in Serbia, "JobFair", has been organized every year in cooperation with BEST. Our members have chance to cooperate with companies by giving them technical support. By EESTEC being a link between students and industry, promoting companies gives students a possibility of finding a job and getting in the direct contact with the best companies in Serbia.

Bucharest

EESTEC LC Bucharest was founded because we have understood that we need EESTEC as young people, as students and as future specialists. The first legal document of EESTEC LC Bucharest started, association founded in December 2002. In April 2003 EESTEC LC Bucharest is granted full membership to the International Association through the decision of the General Assembly reunited at the EESTEC Congress within Cubes, Cosenza, obtaining legal status locally in May 2004. Internationally, EESTEC LC Bucharest promoted and finally created new traditions such as ICE (Inner Circle of EESTEC) and EESTEC Hour, events dedicated to members all across Europe.

Budapest

LC Budapest was established in 1986. The aim of its foundation was to expand the knowledge and broaden the view of the students of engineering. Since the beginning, it has been a member of the Electrical Engineering STudents' European assoCiation, EESTEC. As a non-profit student organization, initially it arranged mainly short-term exchange programs. The foreign colleagues taking part in those programs were guided around Hungary.

Cosenza

LC Cosenza was born in October 1998, after some students of the University of Calabria (Cosenza) have taken part in the EESTEC Congress in Reggio Emilia, in April of the same year. LC Cosenza has been always very active at international level participating to 31 and organizing 6 EESTEC events: two Exchanges, three Workshops (among them are the first EESTEC Workshop in Italy and the first IEEE-EESTEC Technical Conference) and the EESTEC Congress 2003.

Delft

Delft was present at the start-up meeting of Eurielec in 1963, the predecessor of EESTEC. The first congress, in 1966, was of course held in Delft. The ideas were great, but Eurielec didn't last. Contacts faded during the 70's. But in the 80's, the association got a new life, and a new name. In 1986 the old Eurielec changed its name to EESTEC. The first EESTEC congress was held in Eindhoven. And of course, Delft was again there. Since then, LC Delft has known periods of high and low activity. But because the committee organizing the exchanges is linked to the electrical engineering guild, ETV, the EESTEC spirit never died. In 2000, the time came again for LC Delft to step to the foreground. We organized a congress that still has its echo's in this time. Now, in 2004, our colleagues of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics have joined the experience and after the official foundation of EESTEC LC Delft, we have more members then ever before. The primary aim of EESTEC LC Delft is to promote and develop international contacts of the students of the Faculty Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics of The Technical University Delft by organizing Exchanges and Workshops.

East Sarajevo

Idea of EESTEC in Srpsko Sarajevo was born in 2004 when group of students went to Annual Congress in Belgrade. The idea seemed good so we sent some of our students to EESTEC events and finally we made our first, but unofficially exchange in January 2005. We were still observers in that time. After that we went to Congress in Madrid and became Local Committee. In meantime our city changed its name form Srpsko Sarajevo (Serbian Sarajevo) to Istocno Sarajevo (East Sarajevo), so we became LC East Sarajevo.

The idea about EESTEC in Sarajevo was born in June 2006. On his own initiative and with a support of IEEE Student Branch Sarajevo, our colleague Faris Nizamić has visited the event organised by local Committee Belgrade. On his return to Sarajevo he was completely under impressions of EESTEC spirit. Then he addresses to his colleagues who had been interested in student activities and with them he started developing present JLC Sarajevo.

In very short period of time JLC Sarajevo has a support of the Dean, Faculty Management and many important professors.
