About Program

The London Professional Internship Programme offers you a full-time, unpaid placement (25 to 35 hours a week). AES will source a suitable internship for you based on your degree, experience and future career plans. There is no requirement to study while you are in the UK. We generally work with medium to small-sized companies as, in our experience, smaller companies can offer a more hands-on experience for you. We will ensure that all placements follow a learning agreement so that you are able to gain a variety of skills & are exposed to as many aspects of a British business as possible. During your internship, you will also have a supervisor who will closely monitor your work.

London Internship through AES

My name is Amaya Gallivan, and I am a dedicated college student currently enrolled at Liberty University, where I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology with a cognate in Data Networking and Security as well as a minor in Graphic Design. During the months of September-October, I interned for an artificial intelligence startup know as Move.ai. For two months, I lived in London, England working at their headquarters as a Solutions Engineering Intern supporting their information security and helping with data infrastructure projects. Move.ai is a private software development company that specializes in motion capture, artificial intelligence, computer vision, extended reality, augmented reality, and virtual production. My internship at Move.ai provided me with invaluable hands-on experience in the field of artificial intelligence. I had the privilege of working alongside a talented and diverse group of professionals who shared their knowledge and expertise generously. This exposure allowed me to deepen my understanding of AI technologies, including machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision, among others. I truly felt like a valued member of the team, and I am grateful for the mentorship I received. My internship at Move.ai was an immensely beneficial experience that has left a lasting impact on my personal and professional development. I am deeply grateful for the opportunities I had and the knowledge I gained during my time at Move.ai.

My time in London was nothing short of amazing. From the moment I set foot in this vibrant city, I was captivated by its rich history and modern energy. Exploring iconic landmarks like the Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, and Big Ben left me in awe of the city's grandeur and cultural significance. One of the highlights of my time in London was experiencing its charming neighborhoods, each with its own unique character. From Camden Market's eclectic mix of shops and street food stalls to the serene beauty of Greenwich and its historic observatory offered a peaceful atmosphere from the city's hustle and bustle. Furthermore, Notting Hill's colorful houses and the vibrant Portobello Market filled my days with bliss. Lastly, Hyde Park's vast green spaces and Kensington's elegant streets provided a serene escape, perfect for long walks and picnics. Each day was a new adventure, and I left London with cherished memories and a profound appreciation for this extraordinary city.

Pros
  • Amazing City

I loved every second. Definitely experienced some obstacles but I would totally do it again. I’m gonna go home a new person and am going to miss this country. I got to meet so many cool people and see so many cool things. I travelled to other countries and see so many new towns. My family is from here so I got to see them for the first time in eight years. My friends visited and I got to show them everything I was doing. London was the best place to do this program and I loved every second!!!!!!

London Fall 2015 Internship Program

Anglo Educational Experiences has provided a great experience for my semester abroad. I couldn't have asked for a more supportive group. Struggling with homesickness and the many questions I had, I knew that I could always go to the Anglo group. They were very well prepared for the most part and were professional with interactions.

What would you improve about this program?
The housing for this program could be greatly improved. Although the location was excellent, living standards and basic needs were not met. ISH housing was tight and disgusting.

I would also like to say that some parts of the internship such as the environment and the work involved were not advertised well. There should be more of a conversation between interns and Anglo about the work they will be doing as well as what they can expect to get for conditions.

Response from AES

Hi Emily
Thank you for taking the time to review the AES London Semester Program. We’re glad that you enjoyed your internship and your time in London.
The housing for your programme was arranged directly by your university and was not provided by AES, so unfortunately we can’t address your issues.
The majority of our interns have a skype/telephone interview with their placement which gives students the opportunity to discuss the exact details of the internship, what the work environment is like etc. Once the placement is confirmed AES sends details of the company and students are able to contact the company directly. After the initial call with AES, if students have any questions about any aspect of their programme the AES staff are always on hand to answer them. We will certainly take on board your comments.
I hope you have a safe flight home.
