U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) is accepting applications for internships in his Washington, D.C., North Charleston, Columbia, and Greenville offices for the summer of 2024. The program offers undergraduate and graduate students the chance to work with public service professionals and gain practical experience in constituent services, government policy, and more. Students of all majors are welcome to apply.
In Washington, interns will research legislation, attend congressional hearings and briefings, assist with press tasks, and help manage correspondence. Responsibilities also include answering phones and other administrative tasks. Interns in this office will gain an understanding of the lawmaking process, while improving their communication and customer service skills.
In the state offices, interns will take an active role in the community, working on state-based projects while answering phones, completing research, and being an integral part of day-to-day office operations.
Internship hours are flexible to accommodate students’ course schedules but generally run from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday to Friday. Students may gain course credit for completing the program.
