abstract
The mission of Texas Sea Grant is to improve the understanding, wise use, and stewardship of the state's coastal and marine resources. To achieve this mission, Texas Sea Grant directs its extension, outreach, education, and research programs to benefit the citizens, businesses, and communities of Texas - from providing grants and scholarships that benefit students and workforce development, to funding Texas' innovative researchers to solve real-world problems, to deploying a boots-on-the-ground extension team to help small businesses be more competitive in a global marketplace and coastal communities to grow sustainably and build resilience to impacts from storms and other coastal hazards. The four focus areas for 2018 through 2021 programs are: Resilient Communities and Economies, Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture, Healthy Coastal Ecosystems, and STEM Education and Workforce Development.
