Each year, the FCE committee (Foreign Career Excursion, previously known as the BBX committee) organizes an excursion abroad to get acquainted with career opportunities within Earth Sciences. During the excursion, universities, research facilities, and companies are visited so students can explore thesis, internship, and job options abroad and learn about the geology and physical geography in the country of residence.
The exclusive group of 20-30 students that are selected to join the excursion have been subject to a selection process, in which they are required to submit an application letter including their personal motivation and curriculum vitae. This ensures that only highly motivated and outstanding students will join the excursion. Examples of previous excursion destinations are Norway, Iran, Romania, Switzerland, and Iceland. During these excursions, research facilities and companies were visited, and the countries were explored. This was not only educational and useful for career purposes, but also a great and fun experience for the participants.
