Opportunity Information: Apply for NOAA OAR SG 2019 2005909
The Fiscal Year 2019 NMFS-Sea Grant Fellowships in Marine Resource Economics is a federal fellowship opportunity offered through the U.S. Department of Commerce under NOAA, specifically connecting the National Sea Grant College Program with NOAA Fisheries (the National Marine Fisheries Service, or NMFS). Sea Grant was established by Congress in 1966 and later amended in 2008 (Public Law 110-394) to build strong federal-state partnerships that use the research strength of universities and related institutions to tackle real-world issues and create opportunities in coastal communities. This particular fellowship is positioned within that broader mission, but it focuses tightly on the economics side of marine conservation and fisheries management.
The program is designed to support Ph.D. students who want careers involving quantitative economic approaches to the conservation and management of living marine resources. In practical terms, it is aimed at students working on applied marine resource economics, such as methods that help evaluate management choices, conservation tradeoffs, regulatory impacts, and the economic dimensions of sustaining fisheries and marine ecosystems. A central expectation is that the fellow will pursue a dissertation topic that is not only academically rigorous but also clearly tied to public interest questions that matter to NMFS and to U.S. marine resource policy.
A defining feature of the fellowship is the mentorship structure. Fellows conduct their thesis research with guidance from NMFS mentors based at participating NMFS Science Centers or NMFS Offices. That setup is meant to keep projects grounded in the types of decisions and analytical needs faced by federal fisheries scientists and managers, while still allowing the fellow to complete a Ph.D. within a university setting. The opportunity also directly aligns with NOAA's Healthy Oceans goal, emphasizing marine fisheries, habitats, and biodiversity being sustained through healthy, productive ecosystems.
Funding is provided as a cooperative agreement, and the program anticipates making one new Ph.D. fellowship award in this cycle (and generally expects to award one new fellowship each year). The expected annual support per fellow is $48,000, made up of federal and matching funds and jointly funded by NOAA Fisheries and Sea Grant. The fellowship can provide support for up to three years, which is intended to cover a substantial portion of a doctoral research period and encourage a deeper, more policy-relevant dissertation effort.
