In detail, we are looking for students to work on projects related to Earth reservoirs and the energy transition across a wide range of topics and disciplines, including development of modeling of geothermal systems and reactive fluid transport through Earth's crust.
I would be grateful if you can forward the message onto any students who qualify and might be interested in one of the six positions.
For more information about project details, any project-specific requirements, and faculty contacts, please see: https://tinyurl.com/NMT2025EGFP

Students - Did you receive an honorable mention by the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program and are still looking for a good fit?
Faculty - Did any of your students earn an NSF GRFP honorable mention and are still looking for a funded graduate program?
The Earth and Environmental Science Department at New Mexico Tech was recently funded by NSF to support six graduate students (3 years of funding support) who received honorable mention on a GRFP proposal as part of the EPSCoR Graduate Fellowship Program (EGFP) program. The graduate students will conduct research that addresses frontier challenges in understanding Earth reservoirs and the energy transition across a wide range of topics and disciplines.
Students will apply for specific opportunities focused in
- Geochemistry: experimental petrology and critical minerals
- Geomechanics: fracture mechanics and progressive rock failure
- Geodynamics: modeling of fluid-rock interaction
- Geophysics/Seismology: exploring near surface/subsurface properties using seismic/DAS data analysis
All applicants must meet the following eligibility requirements:
- Received an Honorable Mention from the NSF GRFP program in the last five years.
- U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals, or permanent residents of the United States
- Not currently enrolled in a degree-granting program
- Have never previously accepted an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship
- Meet the same requirements for the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship
