Opportunities
I am always looking for talented students and early-career scientists to join the NYCITTI research group at CCNY. While the funds and other resources I have available for specific projects changes with time, don't hesitate to contact me anytime if you're interested in working with me. Read on for more information.
Undergraduate students
For current or incoming undergraduates at CCNY, research positions could be for course credit or not. Summer research internships are also available. Just email me or swing by my office sometime.
Master's students
Students interested in pursuing a Master's Degree with me should check out the CCNY Earth and Atmospheric Sciences M.S. program. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, but they should be submitted by May 1st for a Fall term start or by November 15th for a Spring term start.
Ph.D. students
I advise Ph.D. students through the Dept. of Earth and Environmental Sciences (EES) and the Dept. of Physics at the City University of New York Graduate Center (GC).
For enrollment starting the subsequent fall, the annual deadline for the GC EES Ph.D. program is mid-December.
For enrollment starting the subsequent fall, the deadline for GC Physics is early January.
Please reach out to me well in advance if you are interested in applying.
It is especially useful to hear from prospective students well in advance of the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship (GRFP) program annual deadline in mid/late October, so that there's the possibility of working together on that. But that's not the only possible funding source, and even if you're past any of these deadlines, please email me to see what can be arranged.
Postdocs
Postdocs are hired through the CCNY EAS Department. If you have a Ph.D. or will have one soon and are interested in working with me, please email! If I don't have funding on hand for a position, we can potentially work together to prepare a postdoctoral fellowship application.
