Still looking around? Don’t hesitate to Join us! We own an interdisciplinary group to understand problems in surface geochemistry and computational mineralogy, thus there are research opportunutues in fields ranging from experimental approaches and computational modelling for actinide immobilzation and carbonate. As a part of Mineralogy and Materials Science Research Group we interact with Radiation Effects and Radioactive Waste Management group, Michigan Geomicrobiology group, Electron Microbeam Analysis Laboratory (EMAL) and Mineral Physics group.

 Graduate and Undergruate Students:  Openings are available for graduate students with a wide range of backgrounds including geology, chemistry, physics, material science and engneering, enviromental science and engineering, and computational modelling. Moreover, Department of Geological Science provides several competitive fellowships and Graduate Student Instructor positions to fund excellent Ph.D students.
