The Board of European Students of Technology (BEST) is a non-governmental, non-political and non-profit student organisation. BEST is supported by around 3,800 volunteers who are members of local BEST groups in 94 technical universities in 32 countries.
The structure of BEST is divided into three different levels: local, regional and international. Each one of the 94 Local BEST Groups (LBGs) represents the organisation locally in the University they belong. In order to have a more effective communication between LBGs and the international BEST, the 94 LBGs are divided into 11 regions which are coordinated by the Regional Advisers. Finally, there is the international team of BEST which consist of 10 different departments. The whole organisation operates under the International Board of BEST.

BEST collaborates with five other student organisations:
