Reports are a required condition upon accepting Sea Grant funds. These reports are vital to convey the achievements of your projects to NOAA-National Sea Grant, state, local and other sponsors and, when appropriate, to the general public.
Online Progress and Final Reports
Annual online progress reports: These reports are due one month (23 days) after the completion of each 12-month grant period.
Final online report: This is due two months (60 days) after the project end date.
Reports are submitted using the electronic form at the “Edit or Submit Your Online Progress/Final Report” link in the upper right. Have the following information available before you fill in the online reporting form:
- Changes in objective, methodology and rationale
- Accomplishments/findings to date
- Benefits
- Presentations – including number of attendees
- Significant interactions with other agencies
- Media contacts
- Students supported – including undergraduate and graduate students
- Publications – including journal articles or outreach materials
Final Narrative Report
In addition to the online progress reports, Michigan Sea Grant research projects are required to complete a final narrative report. This must be submitted before the project end date so that Michigan Sea Grant can facilitate a peer review process. Additional details will be provided to funded research teams.
