We’re hiring!

Applications are now open for the ASUM Spring Legislative Internship! ASUM is looking to hire 8 outstanding students for the 2021 Spring legislative session.

ASUM Interns are the front line of UM System students’ representation at the Missouri State Capitol. Our legislative team advocates for bills concerned with, among other things, college affordability, voting accessibility, expansion of STEM funding, sexual health, the accessibility of mental health support on college campuses, and the representation of student voices in the governance of our public universities.

Student interns will be registered as lobbyists in the state of Missouri. This program allows for tremendous growth in communication, professionalism, research skills, and knowledge of the political system in Missouri. Past interns have gone on to work for non-profits, consulting firms, and lobbying groups across the country.

Upon completion of the program, interns will receive a stipend and travel reimbursements. Interns may receive 3-6 hours of academic credit. However, academic credit is not guaranteed as a matter of participation in this internship program.

It is important that you review the attached job description to understand how the program will change as we receive updates regarding COVID-19.

All applications are due October 19, 2020, by 5 p.m.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to ama7gr@umsystem.edu, and we’ll be in touch!

We look forward to hearing from you!
