In order to comply with the new schedule set by IAESTE A.s.b.l., we have made the following changes to the internship application schedule.
Host institutions are requested to submit their offers earlier. We would appreciate your understanding.

Last year, forty-two students applied for the 2024 Trainee Selection Examination, and 35 of them were selected as candidates for dispatch.
As a result of close negotiations with each member country, we obtained 32 offers* that were in line with each candidate’s area of expertise and preferences.

Meanwhile, a total of 37 offers from Japanese internship hosts were provided to each member country.

IAESTE Japan will continue to support the candidates until they start their internship.
*Offers: Documents indicating the internship offered by the internship host.
