How to join us
We are always looking to recruit new graduate students to join our program! Because a student鈥檚 eventual acceptance depends very heavily upon the recommendation of a potential faculty advisor, you should contact at least one potential advisor prior to submitting your application. Your own research interests should have some overlap with those of your potential advisor. So, take a look at the professors in our department, have some fun exploring the variety of research happening here, and then get in touch!
