PhD Program

M3ODEL offers PhD candidates to work on joint projects, co-directed by at least 2 professors or PIs from different fields. Projects are interdisciplinary and combine data from experiments or observations with theoretical and mathematical formulations and with numerical simulations to produce comprehensive quantitative models.

We have funded 6 projects in 2020. The candidates are scheduled to start as early as June 2020.
