Indiana House Republicans are seeking student interns for the 2026 legislative session, according to State Rep. Beau Baird (R-Greencastle).

These paid, full-time internships are open to college students, recent graduates and students in graduate and law school. Baird said the internship is an opportunity to gain practical knowledge of state government through active participation in the legislative process.

"We're proud to welcome students into the House Republican Internship Program each legislative session," Baird said. "This opportunity helps prepare the next generation of leaders for careers in public service and beyond."

Interns will work in the Statehouse in downtown Indianapolis full time Monday through Friday during the legislative session, which starts in January and concludes in March.

Positions are available in legislative operations, policy and communications.

Baird said interns will be paired with a staff member to work directly with an assigned group of state representatives. During this spring semester internship, students will have opportunities to interact with state legislators, state agencies and private sector organizations, as well as participate in a weekly speaker series featuring Indiana civic leaders.

Applications are available online at indianahouserepublicans.com/internship and are due by Oct. 31.
