The Department of Political Science administers the Tennessee Legislative Internship Program for the University.
Interns spend a full semester working in a legislative office in Nashville.
The Tennessee General Assembly funds about 27 interns statewide. These slots are highly competitive and it is quite an honor to be chosen. Tennessee Tech usually gets three of these state internships. In addition, Tennessee Tech funds two interns, one each for our local legislators. All interns since 1991 are listed below.
