Internship Program

The Commissioner’s Office Internship Program is designed to provide insight to individuals who want to lean more about agriculture and state government. The internships are geared to provide a realistic overview of routine activity within a government office.

Staff liaisons will provide assignments and any special projects to interns in their respective areas of interest. Although interns are not directly assigned to the Commissioner, an effort is made to give interns the opportunity to observe the Commissioner.

All internships are voluntary, and we regret that funds are not available to reimburse individuals financially. However, we highly encourage applicants to seek college credit through their educational institution. Our office will be happy to work to meet any respective guidelines and provide proper documentation or other information, which may be needed to meet college or university requirements. A set of rules that must be adhered to will be reviewed during the interview process.

Internships are Monday thru Friday
Hours are 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.
