Fellows will complete an interdisciplinary program of study and research, working with faculty and other fellows from several departments, including Agricultural and Biological Engineering, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Civil Engineering, and Forestry and Natural Resources. Fellows may apply through any of these departments. Note that students who have initiated a Ph.D. program are not eligible. The fellowship provides salary, tuition, insurance and funding for some research and travel expenses. Funding available for 3 years.
Fellowships are available immediately in water science and electrohydraulic controls.
Their research focus will be on the influence of wetland type, wetland size, land cover condition, and spatial patterning of wetlands on hydrology, geomorphology, water chemistry or stream biota within watersheds dominated by agricultural practices. Desired qualifications include an MS in Mechanical Engineering, Agricultural Engineering or closely related fields.
