Overview
Coastal Management and Digital Coast Fellows work for two years with state coastal zone programs on projects proposed by the states and selected by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Office for Coastal Management. In a mutually beneficial arrangement, each fellow receives on-the-job training in coastal management and policy and, in return, the coastal resources program gets technical assistance from students well-versed in the latest advances in coastal resource science and policy.
