What is IAESTE?
International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience (IAESTE) is a global non-governmental, non-profit organisation. We benefit students, employers and universities through the IAESTE internship programme. Paid internships abroad help students gain professional experience and cross-cultural skills. Employers and universities gain access to talented international interns, who bring new impulses and insights to their business or research. IAESTE provides primarily STEM internships, however we expand to other fields, such as marketing, management and languages.

TYPES OF INTERNSHIPS
On-site Internships
Paid on-site internships enable students to gain valuable professional experience, live and work abroad, enhance their CVs, find new friendships and broaden their horizons. IAESTE interns solve business and research challenges in real work environments, offer new perspectives to their employers and develop their skills.
Remote Internships
IAESTE remote internships provide students with meaningful work experience. They combine high-quality professional development with accessibility, flexibility and ability to hire quickly. Students can work from anywhere in the world, and thus improve their remote work skills. These internships are also suitable for students who can not travel.
How it works
To apply for an IAESTE internship you need to register in our Exchange Platform (a database of all available internships) and contact your national or local committee. Each country has its own processes and eligibility requirements that you will need to follow in order to be considered for an internship. If you are a student from a country that is not a member of IAESTE, follow the steps as outlined here.
