We, as engineering students of Bogaziçi University , Istanbul TURKEY, who comfront with similar situations at school invite you to meet our lovely city Istanbul, discuss academic projects and have fun as well.

We, as the members of Engineering Society ( ENSO, a distinguished organization of Bogaziçi University), try to bring engineering students from all over the world. Every year we make new friends and in 2008, we want to see you among us.
It is easy to participate in ICAMES. Because, there is no limitation on topic!! Any engineering topic may be acceptable. In other words, it doesn't matter if you are a student from electrical, chemical, computer, manufacturing, civil or mechanical engineering disciplines. The must is to have a project which is acceptable according to the criteria stated in the "Project Description".

If you are interested in an engineering project or you have to submit a thesis , find one or two friends, arrange your advisor (any academician acquinted with your project), prepare your project presentations and apply with the project proposal by sending us your abstract.

If your project is accepted by the Advisory Committee of ICAMES' 2008, the only thing you have to do is to buy your tickets because all of the other expenses of this incredible week will be provided by ENGINEERING SOCIETY.

We really want to see you here!
