What is IEASTE?
Founded in 1948, the International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience (IAESTE) is a prestigious, non-governmental organization dedicated to fostering professional and cultural exchange worldwide. It operates through an expansive international network of national committees in over 100 countries, having empowered more than 374,000 students through global internships to date.
The Professional Experience
IAESTE specializes in providing career-focused, paid internships specifically tailored to students in STEM and related technical fields. These placements are designed to integrate seamlessly with your academic studies, offering real work responsibilities that significantly enhance both your professional skill set and your future employability. Beyond the workplace, the program provides a unique platform for cultural immersion, global networking, and the development of essential cross-cultural skills.
The Application Process and Vtest Requirement
In Türkiye, IAESTE is managed through local university committees that offer hands-on support for applications, logistics, and arrival processes. To ensure candidates are equipped for success in a global professional environment, students must demonstrate their English proficiency through the Vtest. This standardized assessment is a mandatory prerequisite to verify that you possess the communication skills required for your host country and specific internship role.
What is the VTEST?
VTEST is a secure, AI-driven English language assessment platform designed to provide precise proficiency measurements aligned with the 10-level CEFR scale. By utilizing adaptive testing technology and machine learning, VTEST offers a flexible and cost-effective alternative to traditional standardized testing. Our Turkish students have to take the VTEST in order to go to international universities through AIESTE.
