Description
The Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship provides graduate students with one-year placements in federal offices concerned with marine policy. Offered through Maryland Sea Grant, it gives fellows opportunities to explore their interests and broaden their experience through work in the legislative and executive branches of government. Its focus is federal marine policy experience, with placements spanning both branches rather than a single agency or office.
The fellowship is funded by the National Sea Grant Office and administered through individual state Sea Grant programs, including Maryland Sea Grant. It is part of Maryland Sea Grant’s broader graduate fellowship opportunities in research, natural resource management, and marine policy.
