Introduction

Research supported provides information of practical importance to Texans and meets the needs of our coastal communities. Funding priorities include: Healthy Coastal Ecosystems, Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture, Resilient Communities and Economies, and Environmental Literacy and Workforce Development.

Requests for proposals (RFPs) for state projects are issued every two years. 

To receive funding opportunity announcements directly, please send an email to sgrfp@listserv.tamu.edu with subject line “SUBSCRIBE.” A list of research projects funded by Texas Sea Grant since the program’s beginning in 1968 is available. Funded researchers can find assistance on reporting on the Texas Sea Grant award reporting page.

Reporting Requirements

Overview

Sea Grant Fellows will be administratively responsible to their sponsoring State Sea Grant Directors during their terms in Washington, D.C., but must be responsive to the administrative and technical direction from the host to whom they report. The role of the Knauss Program Manager in the NSGO is one of the ombudsman between the fellow, the host, the Sea Grant Programs and the sponsoring institution. The fellow is responsible for managing the planned budget and for reporting progress.

Reporting

Project progress reports are due on a semi-annual basis. Fellows are required to submit a mid-year and a final performance report (summary of accomplishments and activities) to their Sea Grant program. Sea Grant programs will submit all reports to the NOAA Grants Office via eRA.

The mid-year report (details the first 6 months of their fellowship), is submitted to their home Sea Grant program by early August and their final report by February (at the end of their fellowship after 1/31/20XX). The report template is the Research Performance Progress Report (RPPR) format. A template geared towards the Knauss Fellowship will be provided for completion. Fellows should also include the Professional Development Plan approved by their Host Office Supervisor. Submit all documents to Mia Zwolinski, Texas Sea Grant Research Coordinator, at: mzwolinski@tamu.edu.
