“It’s my goal to find innovative solutions to make seafood more sustainable, and I need more technical training to do so. My research internship will give me the resources and opportunities to gain more experience and help make that goal possible.” - Ellie P. ‘26, colsa.unh marine, estuarine and freshwater biology major
 
Working as a research assistant during the spring semester in the lab of Michael Chambers, research associate professor in UNH’s Center for Sustainable Seafood Systems, Elisabeth Petit ’26 was able to tap directly into interests she hopes will carry her well beyond UNH.
 
She was recently named a recipient of the NOAA Ernest F. Hollings Undergraduate Scholarship, an award for sophomore students that includes academic assistance for two years of full-time study and a 10-week, full-time paid internship at a NOAA facility during the summer.
 
Petit will start her internship in the summer of 2025 and hopes to work in a NOAA fisheries lab. Although she would love to focus on shellfish aquaculture, she says she is open “to studying any aspect of sustainable fisheries of aquaculture.”
