Purdue Government Relations Internship

Are you interested in learning about higher education policy, government affairs and legislation? Consider applying for the Purdue Government Relations internship.

The Purdue Government Relations intern will assist with policy analysis, issues management and communications.

In this internship, students will have the opportunity to experience the legislative process firsthand, advocate for Purdue and higher education initiatives, network with legislators and their staff, and learn critical skills for future career opportunities.

Statehouse Internships

Internships are also offered through the Indiana House of Representatives and the Indiana Senate at the Indiana Statehouse in Indianapolis. Visit each caucus website for more information.

During the internship, I was able to witness the legislative process at the Statehouse, which created an immersive experience. I feel confident in my ability to understand the issues that Indiana’s state-funded education institutions will face in the future and I hope to continue to learn how to create solutions.
