Posting: Position: PhD Position Start reviewing process: 14 June 2020

I am recruiting a Ph.D. student to study earth surface processes and hydrology at Utah State University. Please share this opportunity with interested undergraduate or masters level students who might be interested in the connections between sediment and river dynamics, climate change, and the near-future.

Specific research topics are currently open to the student’s interests with a variety of approaches available including field and laboratory experiments, physical modeling, and large data synthesis. Student’s must have a bachelor or masters degree in engineering or a related science degree with relevant quantitative coursework.

Please instruct interested persons to contact me directly prior to applying and include a brief resume or CV. We offer a variety of interdisciplinary and innovative Ph.D. programs (https://engineering.usu.edu/cee/students/requirements/index) within the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE; https://engineering.usu.edu/cee/). Admitted students will join the Utah Water Research Laboratory (https://uwrl.usu.edu/) and CEE with the opportunity to work collaboratively with the large variety of excellent water related faculty across the university. The start date is flexible (Fall 2020-2021) so I encourage all those interested to contact me (colin.phillips@usu.edu).

Best,
