Wisconsin Sea Grant Advisory Services

The University of Wisconsin's Sea Grant Advisory Services Program serves Great Lakes users by applying science to solve problems, to provide new opportunities, and to educate citizens on Great Lakes concerns. Sea Grant Advisory Services maintains an office at the Great Lakes WATER Institute. The Sea Grant Marine Education Specialist, based at the WATER Institute office, teaches formal (K-12) and non-formal (e.g., nature centers) educators the science of the Great Lakes and oceans. Support to educators statewide is provided through in-service training, workshops and summer courses. This office also serves as a bridge between the university community and the Lake Michigan user community of southeastern Wisconsin, responding to requests for information and short-term technical assistance, and applying new tools to better understand and manage economic and environmental resources.
