The
exciting opportunities this group offers prospective graduate students
Students from many backgrounds such as Materials and Electrical
Engineering, Chemistry, and Physics can succeed and prosper
in this research program. In addition to
the creative and critical thinking skills that a research degree develops,
career enhancing skills that can be gained include:
Electronic thin film fabrication
Electrical characterization
Materials characterization (SEM, TEM, AFM,
surface characterization)
Nano-fabrication
Chemical synthesis
Self-assembly surface chemistry
Membrane separation techniques

My contact policy:
I'm quite busy and typically don't have time to write a thoughtful letter for
all inquirers. You are welcome to send an e-mail, just please don't be
discouraged with a lack of a prompt response. I do quickly read
them, and file e-mails of promising students to check with applicant pool in
late February. Since I usually don't know about funding until very close
to decision time (late March), I generally don't e-mail back prospects of
admission (since I don't know funding). Thus I encourage people to apply
to the Materials Science Program by the deadline. An e-mail from you
explaining research interest in late February/early March is appropriate and I
would then remind me to bring the application up with the admission committee.
