Graduate Student Positions in Photochemistry of Wildfire-derived Compounds
The Moor research group at the Utah Water Research Laboratory is recruiting graduate students to join a recently funded NSF project focused on wildfire-generated organic compounds and their photochemistry in surface waters. Prospective M.S. and Ph.D. students interested in environmental chemistry, photochemistry, and wildfire science are encouraged to apply.
The anticipated start dates are Spring 2027 for the Ph.D. position and Fall 2027 for the M.S. position.
Seeking applicants with backgrounds in environmental engineering, chemistry, chemical engineering, or other related fields. Candidates with research experience in environmental photochemistry are especially encouraged to apply.
Qualified applicants should send a current CV and a brief statement discussing their research interests and experience to Professor Kyle Moor at kyle.moor@usu.edu.
