The Department of Environmental Sciences (ENSC) at Texas Christian
University has funding in the form of tuition waiver and stipend to support
one to two outstanding student(s) in the master’s level to work in a
collaborative project between the Department of Environmental Sciences
<https://ensc.tcu.edu/> and Institute of Ranch Management
<https://irm.tcu.edu/> starting Spring 2020. The student(s) will have the
opportunity to enhance their research skills and experience in hydrology
and native grasses ranch management. The primary responsibilities of the
student(s) will be to (i) analyze existing weather station data along with
grazing management and forage clip data, (ii) collect species surveys and
forage clips as well as the onsite hydrological data from the TCU’s Living
Lab research site, and (iii) disseminate the research findings via
conference presentations and journal publications. Successful candidates
should possess an undergraduate degree in environmental science,
agriculture, natural resources or related field. Students with an
outstanding academic record, GIS and data-analysis skills (ArcGIS, Excel,
Statistics) and past research/field-work experience are preferred.
Interested candidates may contact Dr. Gehendra Kharel (G.KHAREL at tcu.edu,

> Sandia is required by DOE to conduct a pre-employment drug test and
> background review that includes checks of personal references, credit, law
> enforcement records, and employment/education verifications. Applicants for
> employment need to be able to obtain and maintain a DOE Q-level security
> clearance, which requires U.S. citizenship. If you hold more than one
> citizenship (i.e., of the U.S. and another country), your ability to obtain
> a security clearance may be impacted.

> Applicants offered employment with Sandia are subject to a federal
> background investigation to meet the requirements for access to classified
> information or matter if the duties of the position require a DOE security
> clearance. Substance abuse or illegal drug use, falsification of
> information, criminal activity, serious misconduct or other indicators of
> untrustworthiness can cause a clearance to be denied or terminated by DOE,
> resulting in the inability to perform the duties assigned and subsequent
> termination of employment.
