BSE
​
BEST Symposia on Education are symposia events that last for around 6 days. We gather students of technology and professors from Europe with the purpose of evaluating and finding new paths for higher education in Europe.
This is an event where the students discuss education-related topics, trying to identify problems and solutions to innovate and develop education in Europe.
The outcomes of the discussions are afterwards gathered in a final report. Through the analysis of different BSE reports, papers are submitted and, when accepted, presented to international conferences on education such as SEFI AC, WEEF, ICL etc. BSEs are mainly run by the Educational Involvement Department (EduID), in cooperation with the Local BEST Group that is hosting the event.
