The Atmospheric Chemistry and Global Change laboratory in the Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science at the University of Miami (Miami, Florida) is seeking a motivated PhD student in atmospheric science. This is a fully funded PhD position, starting Fall 2025. Potential research projects include: (i) impacts of wildfires on air quality; (ii) ocean biogeochemistry control on atmospheric chemistry; (iii) multiphase chemistry on aerosol particles and impacts on air quality. The candidate will use advanced global/regional models as well as observations (e.g., aircraft, satellite) to investigate the physical and chemical processes in the atmosphere that affect air quality and the climate system.
The ideal candidate should have a strong background in one or more of the following areas: atmospheric/climate science, meteorology, data science, or related physical sciences. Proficiency with at least one programming language (e.g., Python, Matlab) is highly desirable. Additional information about this position can be found here: https://tinyurl.com/yc878uc7. The Principal Investigator, Dr. Siyuan Wang, is an incoming Associate Professor at the University of Miami (starting August 2025). Prospective students are encouraged to explore Dr. Siyuan Wang's work (https://sites.google.com/view/wangsiyuan/) and reach out before applying.
For consideration, please send one single PDF file that includes (1) a 1-page cover letter addressing their research interests and relevant experience, (2) a copy of the latest CV, and (3) unofficial transcripts, to Dr. Siyuan Wang (siyuan DOT wang AT miami.edu). Detailed information on the University's application process can be found here: https://graduate.earth.miami.edu/.
The application is now closed.
After 7+ wonderful years in Boulder (firstly NCAR then CIRES/NOAA), I will join the Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science at the University of Miami as an associate professor, starting August 2025. I will keep using global and regional models and observations (satellite, airborne, etc) to study atmospheric chemistry and air quality. I am thrilled of this opportunity and grateful for the support from my family, friends, colleagues, and mentors. Certainly will miss Colorado.
