Description
The Maryland Sea Grant Research Fellowship connects graduate students with research projects funded by Maryland Sea Grant through a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) grant. Fellows conduct research alongside an established marine scientist and receive academic support. The program combines participation in marine research with opportunities to develop communication and writing skills through Sea Grant-supported programs.
The fellowship reflects Maryland Sea Grant’s mission to integrate research, outreach, and education. Maryland Sea Grant is administered by the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science and works to protect and restore the Chesapeake Bay and Maryland’s coastal resources. Its broader graduate fellowship offerings help students explore research, natural resource management, and marine policy.
