For Prospective Students

UTIG is accepting applications for fellowships for Fall 2012 or Spring 2013 semester. Deadline for application: 5:00 PM, 04 May 2012.

Student training is an important component of the research activities of the Institute. The Institute itself does not award degrees; rather the Institute maintains close relationships with the Department of Geological Sciences and the Marine Science Department through cooperative programs and joint faculty appointments. Many graduate and undergraduate students from UT and other universities and high school students take advantage of the opportunity to work with the staff and facilities of the Institute for Geophysics on projects related to funded research programs. Office space and computational resources are made available to students in the Institute laboratory.

UTIG staff works closely with the Department of Geological Sciences to enhance the curriculum in marine geology and geophysical sciences, areas in which UTIG has particular expertise. UTIG researchers are members of the various JSG Research Groups.
