[Sheri DeRosa]

The National Sea Grant Office recently announced the following 
fellowship opportunities:

National Marine Fisheries Service - Sea Grant Joint Graduate Fellowship 
Program in Population Dynamics and Marine Resource Economics
The NMFS - Sea Grant Joint Graduate Fellowship Program in Population 
Dynamics and Marine Resource Economics is designed to help Sea Grant 
fulfill its broad educational responsibilities and to strengthen the 
collaboration between Sea Grant and the National Marine Fisheries 
Service (NMFS).The Fisheries Fellowship is available to US citizens who 
are graduate students enrolled in PhD degree programs in academic 
institutions in the United States and its territories. Sea Grant and 
NMFS, with required institutional matching funds, expect to support at 
least four new Fisheries Fellows in Population Dynamics and Marine 
Resource Economics in FY 2008.  Fisheries Fellows will work on thesis 
problems of public interest and relevance to NMFS and have summer 
internships at participating NMFS Science Centers or Laboratories under 
the guidance of NMFS mentors.
Applications are due to the Woods Hole Sea Grant Program by 4:00 p.m. on 
January 25, 2008.

Dean John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship
National Sea Grant College Federal Fellows Program, was established in 
1979 to provide a unique educational experience to students who have an 
interest in marine/ocean/Great Lakes resources and in the national 
policy decisions affecting those resources. It is open to all students 
enrolled in a graduate or professional program in a marine- or 
aquatic-related field at a U.S.-accredited institution of higher 
learning. The fellowship allows students to share their expertise with 
policy makers in Washington, D.C., and provides a first-hand look at how 
science is used in the policy arena and how decisions are made.
Applications are due to the Woods Hole Sea Grant Program by 4:00 p.m. on 
February 29, 2008.

Complete details for both of these opportunities are available on the 
web (http://www.seagrant.noaa.gov/funding/rfp.html) or by contacting:
