National Sea Grant Knauss Fellowship

Apply for the Knauss Fellowship

Sea Grant's national John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship program provides eligible students a year of paid experience on a Congressional staff or with an Executive Branch agency working on marine issues. 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 firsthand look at how science is used in the policy arena and how decisions are made.
