International Youth Conference on Energy

The International Youth Conference on Energy is a bi-annual, student-led conference, member of the IAS Club of 6 conferences. The goal of IYCE is for students (BSc, MSc, PhD) and young professionals to come together and present their research in a friendly, but international environment. The location alternates between Hungary and a different European country, so participants can enjoy getting to know a new culture as well as participating in technical programs.

Distinguished Lecturer Program

The SBCs organize a distinguished lecture each year, with topics ranging from renewable energy to high voltage and nuclear techniques. The main goal of these lectures is to bring international experts to the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, so students can get first-hand information about recent topics and engineering news from around the world. Experts have been invited from the United Kingdom, Canada, Sweden and Poland.

IEEE conferences and trainings

Each year, members of the SBC represent Budapest and the Hungary Section at various international IEEE events. These events include technical conferences, where many of our members publish papers or present posters; volunteer leadership trainings and events engineered towards young professionals; or international workshops and lectures. In the last few years, members travelled to the United States of America, Canada, Taiwan, Tunesia, the United Kingdom, Turkiye, Cyprus, Switzerland, and so on. We are proud of our members who publish their research at international conferences and in journals, and who expand our international network at these events.
