Paid Senate Internships Available One of the best ways for young people to get their foot in the door for a career in government service is through an internship with the General Assembly. As the home of Purdue University, Senate District 23 has been well represented in the Senate internship program for many years, and I would love to see more of our young people in Indianapolis next spring. If you know someone of any academic major who is at least a college sophomore, or is a recent college graduate, a graduate student or a law student, please let them know the Indiana Senate Republican Caucus is looking for highly motivated students and young professionals to join our 2026 intern class. This opportunity allows college students to witness the legislative process in action and to be compensated for doing so. We offer paid spring-semester internships in our communications, information technology, legal, legislative, page and policy offices. Interns earn a $900 biweekly stipend and benefit from scholarship and academic credit opportunities, professional development, community involvement and networking. Senate internships are in-person, full-time positions at the Statehouse in downtown Indianapolis that typically begin with a mandatory orientation in late December or early January and conclude at the end of the legislative session, which will be in March 2026. Interning with the Indiana Senate offers participants more than valuable work experience – it’s a chance for young professionals to become more independent, meet new people and experience Indiana’s capital city. If you know a young person who could benefit from this opportunity, please encourage them to apply. |
