The IEA is the UK’s original free-market think tank which was founded in 1955. Their aim is to improve the understanding of the fundamental institutions of a free society by analysing the role of free markets in solving economic and social problems. Since their inception, they have worked with prominent Nobel Prize winning economists including Frederich Hayek and Milton Friedman. They have many internship opportunities for both undergraduate and postgraduate students. These include a 3-month general internship, the Epicenter Internship, and the IEA Global internship. They also have a Summer Internship aimed at undergraduate students specifically.  Additionally, they are holding an essay competition where students can win a monetary prize for debating whether the current upswing in inflation is transitory or not.
