IAESTE - The International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience - is an organization that provides internship abroad opportunities for the Faculty of Architecture and Design and the Faculty of Engineering students to have technical experience related to their studies and to gain international practice abroad. It enables Engineering and Architecture students to do their compulsory internships, which can range between 4 weeks minimum to a maximum of 52 weeks, through the mutual exchange in about 80 different countries.
This program aims to train qualified engineers/architects specialized in their fields by creating an international bridge between students, companies, and universities, and to have our participating students adopt cooperation, teamwork, solidarity, and volunteering activities.
