Student Legislative Internships

UMKC students serve as legislative interns in both the Missouri and Kansas City legislatures. Connecting students to internships is a high-impact practice linked to increased persistence, degree completion, and post-graduation success. Internships contribute to personal and professional development, fostering skills like teamwork and communication. They offer insights into workplace culture, networking opportunities, quicker job placement, higher starting salaries, and leadership development. Lack of transportation can prevent students from taking an invaluable internship opportunity. Help students succeed in their legislative internships by alleviating travel costs with a gift today!
