This program is offering PhD Fellowships focusing on marine ecosystem and population dynamics, with an emphasis on modeling and managing living marine resources. Fellows will conduct research on public interest thesis problems under NMFS mentors. The goal is to sustain marine fisheries, habitats, and biodiversity. Each Fellow is anticipated to receive an annual award of $43,500, split equally between NOAA Fisheries and Sea Grant funds. The closing date for applications is February 26, 2015.

| Description: | The Fellowship Program expects to award at least two new PhD Fellowships in 2015 to students who are interested in careers related to marine ecosystem and population dynamics, with a focus on modeling and managing systems of living marine resources. The emphasis will be on the development and implementation of quantitative methods for assessing marine ecosystems, for assessing the status of fish, invertebrate, and other targeted species stocks and for assessing the status of marine mammals, seabirds, and other protected species. Fellows will work on thesis problems of public interest and relevance to NMFS under the guidance of National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) mentors at participating NMFS Science Centers or Offices. The NMFS-Sea Grant Fellowship in Population and Ecosystem Dynamics meets NOAA’s Healthy Oceans goal of “Marine fisheries, habitats, biodiversity sustained with healthy and productive ecosystems”. The expected annual award per Fellow will be $43,500 (federal plus matching funds), of which half ($21,750) is expected to be provided by NOAA Fisheries, and the other half is expected to be provided by Sea Grant federal funds and required associated matching funds. |
