Opportunity Summary:
The Fiscal Year 2013 National Sea Grant College Program Dean John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship is a federal fellowship opportunity run through the Department of Commerce under NOAA Sea Grant. It is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement and is positioned as an education and research and development program focused on marine, coastal, and Great Lakes issues. The program invites applications for the Sea Grant Knauss Fellowship, a well-known placement-style fellowship designed to connect emerging professionals with real-world federal policy work affecting ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes resources.
Sea Grant expected to support no fewer than 30 fellows through this competition cycle, with a note that placements in the Legislative Branch could be capped at 10 fellows. Each selected fellow would be supported at a total federal funding level of $52,500. The listing indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants and sponsoring entities are not expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is centered on graduate and professional students with a demonstrated interest in marine-related policy. Applicants can be students of any citizenship, as long as they are enrolled in a graduate or professional degree program as of February 17, 2012.
