Governor Mike Braun announced today that applications will be accepted through March 6, 2026, for the 2026–2027 Governor’s Fellowship.
The Governor’s Fellowship is highly selective and provides a unique experience in Indiana state government by placing fellows in various state agencies on a rotating basis throughout the year.
“One of the pleasures of being Governor is working with the next generation of leaders in our state,” Gov. Braun said. “If you know an ambitious and enterprising person early in their career, encourage them to apply to work with me in the Governor's Office this year.”
The program is open to college graduates who receive their associate or bachelor’s degrees beginning in either summer or fall of 2025 or spring of 2026 as well as those without a degree who have at least two years of full-time professional experience. Fellows are paid, full-time employees who participate in the day-to-day activities of state government.
Many Governor’s Fellow participants have gone on to successful careers in both the public and private sectors—with some serving at the highest levels of local, state and federal government.
The application and submission guidelines can be found online HERE. To be eligible for consideration, the application and all supporting materials must be submitted via email by March 6, 2026.
Applicants should know if they have been selected for an interview no later than Friday, March 13, 2026. Recipients of the Fellowship will begin July 1, 2026.
If you have questions about the fellowship, contact Jessica Roeder at jroeder@gov.in.gov.
