2016 California Sea Grant State Fellowship: Coastal/Environmental Engineering Opportunity
|
We invite applicants with an interest in coastal engineering, coastal geology, and/or coastal processes to apply for the 12-month paid fellowship program.
The California Sea Grant State Fellow at the California Coastal Commission (Technical Fellowship) will support executive and senior policy staff (FULL DESCRIPTION HERE - PDF). Graduate students close to completing his/her degree (or recently completed with graduation date after May 1, 2014) in a marine or coastal-related field at a California university are encouraged to apply. Applications are due September 24, 2015.
The
State Fellows Program provides a unique educational opportunity for
graduate students at California higher education institutions who are
interested both in marine
resources and in the policy decisions affecting those resources in California.
Modeled after the highly successful national Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship Program, the State
Fellows Program provides an opportunity to acquire "on the job"
experience in the planning and implementation of marine and/or coastal
resource policies and programs in the state of California. The program
matches highly motivated and qualified graduate
students and recent graduates with "hosts" in State or Federal agencies
in California for a 12-month paid fellowship.
This year, 23 fellowships
are available, including new opportunities with the Office of Lt.
Governor Newsom, NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service - Southwest
Fisheries Science
Center, and Southern California Coastal Water Research Project
(SCCWRP).
The full request for applications with guidelines and host position descriptions are available on California
Sea Grant's State Fellows Program website.
