Research Program - The Graduate Research
Assistant Program (GRA)
The Graduate Research Assistant (GRA) Program is a
year-round educational program which provides students with relevant
research experience while they are pursuing a graduate degree. In some
cases, students can arrange to conduct master's or doctoral thesis
research at the Laboratory. The majority of the appointments are in the
technical and scientific disciplines. Appointments are available for 90
days up to one year, with option for renewal based upon program
requirements. Eligibility is limited to applicants who have completed a
bachelor's degree by date-of-hire, have been admitted, and are in active
status in a graduate program at a college or university. Students are
selected on the basis of field of study, grade point average, and
research interests. Individuals may remain in the GRA program for up to
three months after receiving a PhD. For more information call (505)

Scholarship - The National Oceanic Atmospheric
Administration
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration's Dr. Nancy Foster Scholarship Program recognizes
outstanding scholarship and encourages independent graduate level
research -- particularly by female and minority students -- in
oceanography, marine biology and maritime archaeology. Congress
authorized the Program, as described in the National Marine Sanctuaries
