Eligibility requirements, descriptions of the projects, and guidance on how to apply can be found on their website at https://coast.noaa.gov/fellowship/
For the 2025 fellowship, applicants must complete a master’s or other advanced degree at an accredited U.S. university between Aug. 1, 2023, and July 31, 2025, to be eligible. A broad range of degrees are applicable to the fellowship because the projects are varied among the host organizations. This two-year opportunity offers a competitive salary, medical benefits, and travel and relocation expense reimbursement.
