NOAA Coral Reef Management Fellowship

This program was established to respond to the need for additional coral reef management capacity in the U.S. Flag Pacific and Caribbean islands. The program provides the state and territorial coral reef management agencies with highly qualified candidates whose education and work experience meet each island’s specific needs, while providing the individual fellows with professional experience in coastal and coral reef resources management.

Fellows spend two years working on specific projects determined by each jurisdiction’s coral reef management agencies. Each host jurisdiction provides a staff member who will serve as a supervisor to the fellow. The supervisor guides the fellow on project-specific issues and helps to integrate the fellow into the daily life of the agency. This opportunity offers a competitive salary and professional development training as well as conference travel and relocation expense reimbursement.

Competition occurs every two years; visit funder website for up-to-date information.
