Marine Education Fellowship

The University of Georgia Marine Extension and Georgia Sea Grant is now accepting applications for our 2021-2022 Marine Education Fellowship positions. This full time, yearlong fellowship based near Savannah, Georgia is offered to four qualified individuals seeking to pursue careers in the field of environmental education.

These fellowships, which serve as a bridge experience between college and professional positions, are offered to recent college graduates with a degree in a coastal related discipline (education, environmental science, marine science, or other natural, physical, or social sciences) or a completed degree with relevant coursework. Fellows train and work for 50 weeks to gain experience in environmental education, aquarium husbandry and coastal extension. The education fellowships have three distinct tracks that focus on marine education and outreach, aquarium education and husbandry, and coastal extension. Each track includes teaching, program development and delivery, and additional but varying responsibilities.

The application period is open now and closes on March 12, 2021. Full instructions on how to apply are available on the website.
