The ideal candidate will be self-motivated with a background in physics, mathematics, engineering, or environmental science and possess strong computer skills. Students can work with faculty on active field programs in high-latitude oceans using cutting edge instrumentation, theory, and numerical models. Incoming students will have the flexibility to design projects that fit their interests. An annual stipend will be provided at $27,700 USD for Masters students and $33,500 USD for PhD students with tuition and health care coverage provided.
