چکیده
In February 1991, the European Society for Engineering and Medicine was founded in Nice, France, after consultation with some European Societies, to assure fruitful cooperation. This paper describes the objectives of ESEM and the historical context; its position with respect to related European and national societies will be explained. The internal organisation of ESEM reflects its intention to function in close relation with individual members, while both existing societies, industries and other organisations can join ESEM as associate member. Some of the achievements and further plans will be presented.
