Supporting Science

Maryland Sea Grant promotes marine science inquiry at all levels — from veteran researchers to rookie graduate assistants, from elementary school students to the educators charged with teaching them.
Each stage requires different resources, and Maryland Sea Grant aims to provide the appropriate support, whether it be research grants or fellowships,
online science labs or teacher training workshops.
Maryland Sea Grant supports novel, hypothesis-driven research with applications to issues facing the Chesapeake Bay and beyond. Several
funding opportunities are available for researchers.
Maryland Sea Grant supports several
fellowships for graduate students — valuable experience as they embark on the beginning of their careers in marine research or policy.
Sea Grant provides
research opportunities for undergraduates to complement their classroom studies.
Sparking elementary, middle, and high school students' interest in dynamic, real-world science is key to molding the scientists of tomorrow. Maryland Sea Grant supports a diverse array of science opportunities for K-12 students.
Educators are the gatekeepers of learning — reaching thousands of students every day. Maryland Sea Grant is committed to providing resources for teachers to help them engage their students, especially in environmental science.
