What is IAESTE Malta?
IAESTE stands for ‘International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience’.
In short, IAESTE Malta provides local students with opportunities of undertaking paid internships abroad. These internships take on a range of subjects, from ICT to Engineering, Pharmacy and so forth, intending to suit different university courses. Besides the experience acquired from the internship there are other benefits going for an IAESTE internship, such as being assimilated into a different culture, making new friends, becoming more independent etc.
