Hi Addison,
An internship with the FBI sounds phantastic. You can lay the groundwork by maintaining excellent grades and earning outstanding recommendation letters. Talk to your professors if you can do undergraduate research in your department and if they can facilitate any internships, at the FBI or anywhere else, through their contacts.
There are also forensic police labs in Texas where you can apply for internships. I am leaving some links for you:
FBI: https://fbijobs.gov/students-and-graduates
FBI: https://www.intelligencecareers.gov/fbi/students-and-internships
Forensic Science Department Austin Texas: https://www.austintexas.gov/page/internship-program
Houston Forensic Science Center: https://hfsctx.gov/internship-opportunities/
Garland Texas Police Department: https://www.garlandtx.gov/566/Forensic-Investigation-Unit
Fort Worth Police: https://police.fortworthtexas.gov/Support-Services/forensic-science
I hope this helps! All the best to you!
