Advisory Committee & Science Panel
Minnesota Sea Grant maintains an advisory committee and science panel which consist of a wide range of recognized experts in aquatic resources and economies. Our advisory committee helps keep us connected to a variety of interests within the local community, while our science panel provides us with scientific insight and recommendations. In addition to regular input on planning efforts, these groups participate in our grant process and help determine the research and outreach projects we fund.
