Hydrologic Science and Engineering Program at Colorado
School of Mines
Students
Students in the Hydrologic
Science and Engineering Program are based in one of the participating departments.
On this page, we post information about open opportunities to work with
HSE faculty (research and teaching opportunities), and information
on current HSE students, as well as recent graduates.
Note that we receive many notifications about professional opportunities
for our graduates, but we are not allowed to post those. Please contact
HSE faculty
to find out more about these postings.
The Hydrologic Science and Engineering
Program at the Colorado School of Mines in Golden Colorado is seeking
applications for several graduate assistantships. A list of participating faculty
advisors, along with general application procedures, is listed at hydrology.mines.edu.
In addition to the standard
application for admission to graduate school, applicants for these positions
should draft a short letter explaining their research interests,
potential advisors, and/or teaching interest and experience. Send the
additional letter to:
John McCray, Director Hydrologic Science and
Engineering Colorado School of Mines Golden, CO 80401 jmccray@mines.edu
