The AIESEC difference

The key difference between AIESEC members and other students is the skills they develop through enterprise learning while managing the AIESEC program. AIESEC members are global minded, proactive and responsible young people. They are voluntarily engaged into social relevant issues beyond their studies.

Leadership Experience

AIESEC members have the opportunity to lead teams in different areas, plan, make decisions, speak in public, and turn their ideas into results. Therefore, our members can really experience and apply the knowledge learned at university. So, AIESEC is a great way to combine the theoretical background of university and the "real life".

A connection to the world

AIESEC members interact with industry, government, NGOs, universities, students and interns from all  over the world. This allows members to be some of the most connected youngcitizens in Austrian universities.
