Dr. Semmens took over a large 1890 USDA Capacity Building Grant as a Project Director when he came to KSU, which has been executed successfully. He then developed his first Evans Allen research project to initially develop his own line of research at KSU. Dr. Semmens collaborated with partners from three other states to develop and help manage a Southern Regional Aquaculture Center (SRAC) grant, and then worked with an external collaborator on a NIFA Special Research Grant. In 2017 Dr. Semmens received a $597,000 USDA Capacity Building Grant with the topic of Sustainable Aquaculture, representing a substantial contribution to his teaching, research, and extension activities. He has recently been awarded a new Evans Allen grant to work on the development of floating raceway systems in aquaculture. Overall, Dr. Semmens has been effective at soliciting funding for his program at KSU."

One of these articles reported results of Master’s project of one of Dr. Semmens’ graduate students which demonstrates an ability to guide students through the entire research process including writing of scientific manuscripts. Another Dr. Semmens’ article, which was published in prestigious journal Genes, reported results of joint Hungarian-American study on sturgeon x paddlefish hybridization. These results have been so unexpected and interesting that they have been disseminated by mass media (CNN and the New York Times). Dr. Semmens has been a coauthor on two book chapters since arriving at KSU. These chapters demonstrate effective collaboration with and respect from his peers, as book chapters are invited contributions. Dr. Semmens has participated in a wide variety of research presentations at local and national conferences and workshops. In these presentations of his research and demonstration projects he has consistently included undergraduate and graduate students."
