Information for prospective students and postdocs

Section titled “Information for prospective students and postdocs”

I may take on new students and postdocs over the next few years, though it obviously depends on funding. Please check back here for updates on funded projects or shoot me an email (and I’ll do my best to respond, but if I don’t feel free to send a second).

In oceanography, grad students typically go to work with a specific advisor. It is important to find someone you can work with over many years and through all of the ups and downs of grad school and research.

It is good to research potential advisors at a school and usually worth it to contact them prior to submitting your application. Not everyone will respond or have time to talk, but it is a good way to communicate interest and if you do talk, you can both get a sense of whether you would be a good fit.

I’ve put together a “Grad Student Agreement” that reflects my thoughts on my responsibilities as an advisor and my students responsibilities. It’s meant to be the starting point for conversations regarding expectations in grad school but should give some insight into my philosophy as an advisor.
