The School of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences at the University of Alaska
Fairbanks (UAF) announces the "Future Alaskans in Fisheries and Marine
Science" website, which is designed to help rural Alaskans and Alaska
Natives become fishery biologists and marine scientists. The website
provides listings of scholarships, degree programs, internship and
summer opportunities, curriculum resources and grant opportunities for
K-12 teachers in Alaska, and pre-college preparation programs for high
school students, as well as links to employers and contact information
for fisheries and marine scientists in various communities around
Alaska.

The website is produced through the cooperation of UAF, Bristol Bay
Economic Development Corporation, Tanana Chiefs Conference, Sheldon
Jackson College, Rasmuson Foundation, NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Department
of Fish and Game, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
