Student Activities Timeline

  • 2009: The Iberian Student Branch Congress was first organised. It was born out of a cooperation between the Instituto Superior Técnico and Instituto Politécnico de Castelo Branco Student Branches. It brought together for the first time the student branch volunteers from Portugal and Spain, as well as attendees from Region 8 and beyond, for a total of around 90. Since then, the event takes place every odd year, being alternately hosted by a Portuguese or a Spanish student branch.
  • 2010: 16 people from Portugal attend the SBC 2010 in Leuven, Brussels, making it the third largest delegation.

  • 2012: 28 Portuguese representatives attend the SBC 2012 in Madrid, Spain, making it the second largest delegation. Delegates attend in diverse roles, including a full event recording team from IEEE-IST TV
