Agriculture Commissioner Jonathan Shell is encouraging Kentucky college students seeking a career in agriculture or government to apply for positions in the Kentucky Department of Agriculture’s (KDA) internship program for the 2025 summer.
“Kentucky Department of Agriculture internships offer students the unique opportunity to work side by side with our amazing staff of employees,” Shell said. “This experience can give students valuable insight to launch careers in agriculture or an ag-related field. If you are a college student with an interest in an agricultural career, we encourage you to apply.”
In addition to agriculture, KDA interns may work in education, computer science, marketing, communications, pre-law, and other fields. Internships will run from June to August.
Applicants must be currently enrolled in a college, university, or vocational-technical program. Applicants can be enrolled in either undergraduate or graduate school.
The deadline to apply is January 15. To apply, download and complete the application on the KDA’s website here.
