Applying for internships

This section contains a non exhaustive list of suggestions for any Sri Lankan undergraduate applying for research internships.

• AIESEC global talent makes it easy for you to get Visa for any internship (as of 2019). Talk to the AIESEC branch in your university.
• IAESTE is similar to AIESEC but it is lesser known. Sri Lanka is listed in their website. While the Sri Lankan branch is situated in a particular institute, the branch is supposed to help any student. Contact the branch early and contact the global organization if they fail to help you.
