About Our Chapter

We, your colleagues around Europe, organize our activities in the European Student Chapter of ASIS&T and invite you to join us. The European Student Chapter (ESC) is the “little sibling” of the ASIS&T European Chapter (EC) and both chapters closely collaborate with each other.

• Networking with European students of information science and related disciplines at organized meetings.
• Building an infrastructure for student exchange/internships within Europe
