Description
Washington Sea Grant offers separate Science Communication Fellowships for graduate and undergraduate students. Fellows contribute to communications projects such as writing for Sea Star magazine and developing web content. The work aims to build bridges between scientific information and public understanding while helping fellows develop portfolios as writers and communicators.
The fellowship is suited to students with strong writing skills, a grounding in science, and an interest in marine science, education, or policy. Washington Sea Grant also coordinates with the College of the Environment to offer a similar graduate science communications fellowship through the College.
