The John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellowships Program was established in 1979 to provide a unique educational experience to students who have an interest in marine/ocean/Great Lakes resources and in the national policy decisions affecting those resources. The program is open to all students enrolled in a graduate or professional program in a marine- or aquatic-related field at a U.S.–accredited institution of higher learning. The fellowships, over 50 were awarded for the 2010 class, allow students to share their expertise with policy makers in Washington, D.C., and provide a first-hand look at how science is used in the policy arena and how decisions are made. Many Knauss fellows are offered permanent employment by their sponsoring agencies and either remain in the Washington, DC, area or are assigned to offices across the United States.
Visit either Knauss Fellowships: National Sea Grant Office: NOAA or Knauss Application Info: Sea Grant: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration or Louisiana Sea Grant - Fellowships for additional information on Knauss Fellowships and how to apply.
