To which department did I apply?

This may sound stupid to some of you: I applied for 30+ IBs and got a first round interview with Morgan Stanley next week, for summer internship in London. The position I applied for is called "Equity Research Summer Analyst Programme".

I just realized that I'm not sure what department I applied to. From what I can make out of from MS homepage it's a part of "Sales & Trading". Is this true or is it possible that it's research in another department?

Please don't throw any monkey shit at me, a simple answer will do :D
