Immediate Opening
 A PhD or MS student will take a lead in construction, operation, monitoring (hydraulic, chemical, microbiological aspects; in field and lab), and analysis of subsurface flow constructed wetlands (pilot- or mesocosm-scale) for treatment of wood leachate or logyard runoff. The student will work for an USDA-funded project, while pursuing a degree in Environmental Resources Engineering. The project will start from November 2008, but the student can start as early as the spring 2009 semester. Highly motivated candidates with a BS or MS in environmental engineering or closely related disciplines are encouraged to apply. Please see the application procedures below for regular recruiment. --October 12, 2008.
