[SEMCO] Knauss Fellowship Opportunity

[Sheri DeRosa]

Greetings!

Woods Hole Sea Grant is accepting applications for the 2010 Dean John A. 
Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship program. This one-year program is open 
to any student, regardless of citizenship, who, on February 20, 2009, is 
in a graduate or professional program in a marine or aquatic-related 
field at a United States-accredited institution of higher education.

Dean John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship was established in 1979 to 
provide a unique educational experience to students who have an interest 
in ocean, coastal and Great Lakes resources and in the national policy 
decisions affecting those resources. The program, which is sponsored by 
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) National 
Sea Grant College Program, matches highly qualified graduate students 
with "hosts" in the legislative and executive branches of government 
located in the Washington, D.C. area, for a one year paid fellowship. 
The program is named in honor of one of Sea Grant's founders, former 
NOAA Administrator, John A. Knauss. Additional information on the 
fellowship can be found at:

Completed applications must be submitted no later than 4:00 p.m. on 
February 20, 2009, to:

Dr. Judith E. McDowell, Director
Woods Hole Sea Grant Program
193 Oyster Pond Road, MS #2
