HAPPENINGS

Applications are now being accepted for the 2025 NOAA Coastal Management Fellowship

NOAA Coastal Management Fellowship

• A fellowship established to provide on-the-job education and training opportunities in coastal resource management and policy for postgraduate students.
• A two-year opportunity that offers a competitive salary, medical benefits, and relocation and travel expense reimbursement.
• A program that matches postgraduate students with state coastal resource agencies and nonprofit organizations to work on projects proposed by the hosts and selected by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Students from a broad range of programs are encouraged to apply. A variety of degrees are applicable to the fellowship because the projects are new and different each year.
