AIESEC

Join the World’s largest youth-led organization to develop practical skills and gain hands-on experiences. Promote youth leadership through volunteering and internships.

ABOUT US
AIESEC is the world's largest international youth-run, non-governmental and non-profit organization. It is also the largest youth leadership platform in the world. AIESEC develops leadership through providing cross-cultural internships and global volunteer exchange experiences. The AIESEC network includes nearly 45,000 members in around 120 countries.

AIESEC is an organization recognized by UNESCO and is in consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), the UN's Office of the Secretary-General's Envoy on Youth.

AIESEC connects students with companies and NGOs for overseas internship and volunteering opportunities. If you are interested in our programmes, please check out the links in the section below and feel free to contact us!

AIESEC also recruits members to facilitate the operations of these programmes. As a member of AIESEC, you will have the opportunity to work in a start-up-like environment - facilitating cultural exchanges with interested students, meeting fellow AIESECers from around the UK (AIESEC has local committees in 12 other UK universities!), and developing practical skills.
