YOUR INTERNATIONAL INTERNSHIP STARTS HERE!

IAESTE internship and research programs typically range from 8 weeks to 12 months. The specific duration depends on the position, destination country, and the needs of the host company or institution.

In most internships and research positions offered by IAESTE, English proficiency is sufficient for communication. However, basic knowledge of the local language can greatly enrich your cultural immersion and integration. Specific language requirements are detailed in each position posting.

IAESTE offers programs with excellent cost-benefit ratio. In addition to an administrative fee from IAESTE Brazil, participants need to consider expenses such as visa, airfare, and health/travel insurance. All this information is presented clearly in the annual tariff, ensuring total transparency to the candidate. IAESTE seeks to keep programs accessible and truly advantageous. Remembering that IAESTE internships are paid, which contributes significantly to covering expenses while abroad. Thus, the exchange becomes even more viable and enriching.

The transfer and validation of academic credits to your home institution depends exclusively on your university's policy. We strongly recommend that you consult your course coordination and the international relations department to verify this possibility and the necessary procedures before applying.

IAESTE offers continuous support throughout the entire exchange. This includes guidance for international application, documents for the internship, support with visa matters, and assistance in finding accommodation (frequently organized by International Committees). In addition, many IAESTE international committees also provide reception for interns and promote social and cultural activities, depending on volunteer availability, making the experience even more welcoming and enriching.
