Drs. Luke Pangle and Nadine Kabengi are recruiting an M.S. student to join them at Georgia State University in downtown Atlanta, GA, for fall 2023. The student will be working on a project focusing on the hydrology and biogeochemistry of small headwater streams in variably urbanized landscapes. The project is supported by funding from the Department of Energy and the student is encouraged to develop a research question that leverages facilities and sites at Oak Ridge National Lab, including potential field sites. There may be the option that the student can spend up to 12-weeks of summer 2024 at Oak Ridge.

The grant supports an annual salary for the GRA of $15,000 and there is a full tuition waiver. There is also funding to attend at least one conference. The student can pursue a degree with a concentration in either Water Science, Geology, or Geography, depending on interests, along with the ability to earn a certificate in GIS. More information about the department is here: https://geosciences.gsu.edu/geosciences-graduate-handbook/ and more information about the degree programs and admission requirements are here: https://catalogs.gsu.edu/preview_program.php?catoid=14&poid=4013&returnto=1683

Strong preference will be given to students who are able to start by mid-August 2023.

If you are interested, please send a brief email that summarizes your interest along with a pdf of your transcript (unofficial is ok), resume/CV, and one writing example to: lpangle@gsu.edu and kabengi@gsu.edu. Application review will begin in mid-May and continue until the position is filled.

We strongly encourage applications from students who are typically excluded from academia because of race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, disability, and more.

GSU Geosciences is robust department with 21 core faculty members and approximately 50 M.S. students. GSU, which is located in downtown Atlanta, is the largest university in Georgia, with total enrollment exceeding 50,000 students.
