The State University of Management invites Russian citizens aged 18 to 35 to participate in the Russian Ministry of Education and Science's "Russian Civil Service Intern" project.
The project's main goal is to provide young professionals with the opportunity to complete a paid internship at a federal agency and receive a job offer.
Previously known as "Intern of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia," the project is now called "Intern of the Civil Service of Russia." The name change reflects a conceptual shift: this year, the organizers expanded the career paths for the project's winners.
The project is being implemented in response to the President of the Russian Federation's directive to increase the attractiveness of civil and municipal service for young people. "Russian Civil Service Intern" aims to expand the horizons of professional mobility and enhance the role of internships as a tool for early entry of young professionals into the public administration system.
The fourth season of the "Russian Civil Service Intern" project features several key differences compared to last year. First and foremost, the organizers have removed the graduation year restriction for contestants: while last season only 2021-2025 graduates were eligible to apply, this restriction has been lifted. Furthermore, all project winners will complete the "Public and Municipal Administration in Science and Higher Education" program. As part of their training, interns will prepare and present a study on improving the work of a department within the agency. This study will be included in the intern's portfolio and will be considered by the Ministry's department.
Given that a significant portion of government tasks are implemented at the intersection of science, higher education, human resources policy, and social agendas, this season will see the formation of interdisciplinary teams of interns. This format will allow interns to comprehensively develop project solutions that span the competencies of several agencies and enhance the practical value of their proposals for the public administration system.
Before being accepted for the internship, candidates must complete several online selection stages and participate in a team business game. Based on the overall rating score, the organizers will select 30 project winners. They will complete an internship in one of 22 departments of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, and some of the winners will be assigned to a specialized track, which the organizers will announce later.
In addition, the winners will be provided with a stipend of 30,000 rubles per month and accommodation for the duration of their internship. The work schedule is structured so that interns work at the Ministry from Monday to Thursday, and on Fridays they participate in external acceleration, cultural, and patriotic events.
You can apply for participation until January 31, 2026, on the official project portal stajerggs.rf.
The results of the program will be summarized and the list of winners will be compiled at the end of March 2026.
