The SPE student chapter at the British University in Egypt (BUE) successfully started their campaign, “One Petroleum World Without Borders,” aimed at fostering international publicity as well as understanding among petroleum students worldwide. Organized in coordination with SPE’s Chengdu study group, the first trip—to China—was a great experience for BUE students, who had the opportunity to share their knowledge and experience while organizing professional and fun activities.
The BUE student chapter held successful SPE awareness sessions at three Chinese universities: Southwest Petroleum University, Chengdu University of Technology, and Yangtze University. The student chapter leaders distributed SPE brochures and talked about the benefits of student membership while encouraging fellow Chinese students to start their own student chapter.
