Verification notes
Verified 2026-08-29 against the Al Qasimi Foundation's official internship page and live application form. The page lists Winter applications due October 31 but does not attach a year/closing time to the recurring deadline, so deadline is null. Benefits explicitly include furnished shared accommodation and a modest living-expense stipend; airfare and personal expenses are the intern's responsibility.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
