IAESTE Traineeship

IAESTE traineeships are a once in a lifetime opportunity to undertake course-related, paid work experience in one of over 80 countries worldwide. The programme is open to students of science, engineering and applied arts and usually takes place in the summer, although longer periods are sometimes available.

IAESTE offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the life, work and culture of the country you're visiting. A support network of national and local committees help with everything from accommodation, visas and local advice and there is usually a full summer social programme to enjoy including trips most weekends.

Not only will you gain valuable work experience, relevant to your career, you will get paid while you do so, and also make good friends from all over the world.
