Student Opportunity
Are you interested in majoring in the sciences? Are you looking to dress up your college
application? Eating with the Ecosystem and The University of Rhode Island and have an
opportunity for you! We are seeking citizen scientist to assist with gathering data throughout
New England.
What is Eating with the Ecosystem?
We are seeking citizen scientist to assist with gathering data throughout New England. Eating
with the Ecosystem is a non-profit organization that uses an interdisciplinary approach to
promote locally caught seafood presence in markets, to ensure the long term health and
productivity of New England’s marine ecosystems.
Your Job as a Citizen Scientist:
Your job as a citizen scientist is to visit markets local to you and complete the survey provided
to help us obtain a broad snapshot of what fish species are made available in the New England
retail markets. The survey can either be printed or emailed or even completed and submitted
on your mobile phone. The survey will have you evaluate variables such as: What type of
markets you are surveying (ie. local or large chain)? What portion of the seafood is locally
sourced? What species are available to you at your local market?
How Will This Study Benefit YOU?
By participating in this study, not only will you play a significant role in leading New England to
a sustainable marine future, but you will have the opportunity to enhance your college
application and win fun prizes as well! When applying to college, the admission officers love to
see real-world experience. Participating in this market blitz is a great way to showcase your
dedication towards a more sustainable future. If this is something you think you might be
interested in please take the screening survey here:
