The Organisation
The Institute of Applied Sciences Student Organisation (IASSO) was established in April 2014 and officially recognized at MCAST in October of the same year. The initial idea to set up a student organisation was proposed by a member of lecturing staff and the idea was taken on by a group students who were willing to put their ideas into action.
Works began on drafting the Statute and the Organisation's Code of Ethics. Since then, the team members have been working hard to continue putting forward new ideas and working to reach the Organisation's objectives. With the constant support from administration and lecturing staff, a proactive up-and-running IAS Students’ Organisation has been established.

Our main aim is to include as many students as possible through education by creating awareness on he fields of study, while maximizing student performance and personal development. we believe that students need to gain experience from extra curricular educational activities to gain as much insight knowledge as possible.
Different activities are planned throughout the entire year and IASSO will continue working towards a more interactive student life.
