DESCRIPTION:
Have you ever wondered what a successful fellowship application looks like? Do you know what reviewers lo ok for in a letter of recommendation? Join CERF and NOAA National Sea Grant to learn the ins and outs of applying to fellowship positions. Maddie Kenn edy is the current Sea Grant Knauss Fellowship manager and will be discussi ng what makes a successful fellowship application package. Using The Sea Gr ant Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship as an example this webinar will cover t he following topics:
Students have different levels of experience when it comes to applying for fellowships, and can benefit from having a well-informed mento r or advisor to help them navigate the application process. From something as simple as a proofreader to as critical as a strong letter of recommendat ion, supportive and informed mentorship throughout the process can be the k ey to a successful application. We highly encourage advisors (academic and other) and individuals who think they may write a letter of recommendation or help a student through the application to learn about the process so the y can be a resource for potential applicants.
This webinar will be an opportunity for potential applicants and advisors to learn and ask questio ns about the process.
