Job Description

I am looking for a PhD student to join our group, the Air Quality and Climate research laboratory at UGA. The dissertation project will focus on investigating the emissions and physicochemical properties of aerosols formed in wildland fires simulated in a laboratory. A collaboration with researchers at the U.S. Forest Service as well as multiple academic institutions, this project will provide the student with a highly interdisciplinary research experience and opportunities to build various skill sets in fundamental theory, laboratory experiments, and numerical modeling.

The position will be in the University of Georgia’s college of engineering, starting January 2023. Interested Master’s or senior undergraduate students are encouraged to contact me directly (rawad@uga.edu) to discuss in more details.

UGA, the oldest chartered public university in the United States, is built on a gorgeous campus at the edge of downtown Athens. It provides a vibrant atmosphere with numerous cultural, recreational, and sports activities. Athens is a hip yet affordable college town that is often ranked among the top college towns in the United States.
