About Internship:

Sciensation is impacting school education by replacing the paradigm of “experts teach student” with “senior learners teach junior learners”. The teaching at Sciensation Activity Center is carried out by a young team. Sciensation is a young organization (team is under 26) with a flat hierarchy. All the major academic/ business / operational strategies are brainstormed with the entire team.
