Internships
"An internship is a perfect way for a student to get a first hand look at government and really experience how it works."
— Congressman Bart Gordon
As an intern in Bart's Washington office, students assist in a wide range of activities, including conducting tours of the U.S. Capitol, assisting staff members with research projects, and responding to constituents' requests. In the district offices, interns assist staff as they resolve individual problems Middle Tennesseans are having with the federal government. They also work on research projects and can help the staff with a variety of other tasks.
Internships are available throughout the year. Students and recent graduates interested in applying for an internship should fill out the application form (click here for the application form), and send it in with a cover letter, resume, and writing sample to the appropriate address below:
