Proposals are due by 5 p.m. Monday, Dec. 3, 2018<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The N.C. Coastal Research Fellowship<\/a> provides North Carolina-based graduate students with an opportunity to conduct research within one or more of the 10 sites that constitute the reserve. Sea Grant and the Coastal Reserve anticipate awarding one fellowship for $10,000. All work must be completed by Dec. 31, 2019.<\/p>\n \u201cThis fellowship provides students hands-on training in understanding coastal processes, and that knowledge is valuable to both programs,\u201d\u00a0says John Fear, Sea Grant deputy director.\u00a0\u201cWe\u2019re interested to see what new projects students will propose this year.\u201d<\/p>\n Brandon Puckett, research coordinator for the Coastal Reserve, also finds that the fellows\u2019 research provides valuable insight into important coastal management issues.<\/p>\n \u201cEvery year, these fellows produce sound science that challenges us to critically think about how we respond to issues like invasive species, water quality and how people perceive coastal resources in North Carolina,\u201d\u00a0Puckett explains.<\/p>\n The proposed research must address coastal management issues in one or more of these focus areas:<\/p>\n For details on the application process, including instructions on how to complete a data management plan required by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, go to ncseagrant.ncsu.edu\/ncsg_reserve_fellowship<\/a>.
