We are seeking a Ph.D. student to work on a flood modeling project starting in the Summer or Fall of 2024. The student will be Co-advised by Dr. Cibin Raj and Dr. Alfonso Mejia at the Pennsylvania State University. The student could be enrolled in either the Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering or the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. This NSF-funded CiviL Infrastructure research for climate change Mitigation and Adaptation (CLIMA) project aims to address this problem by exploring a theory-guided systems modeling framework for designing climate-resilient levee infrastructure that supports floodplain communities in an equitable way. Preference will be given to candidates with good coding skills and background in ecohydrologic and hydrodynamic modeling. Applicants should have an M.S. in Civil Engineering, Agricultural and Biological Engineering, or related fields focusing on natural resources engineering. Interested candidates should send a curriculum vitae and a statement of interest to Dr. Cibin Raj (craj@psu.edu) or Dr. Alfonso Mejia (aim127@psu.edu) and apply to https://gradschool.psu.edu/graduate-admissions/ .
