[Luiza Notini]

*Join the Environmental Geochemistry Lab!*

The Environmental Geochemistry Lab, led by Prof. Luiza Notini at the
University of Delaware, is seeking motivated and talented graduate students
for a fully funded PhD position. Our research delves into the intersection
of iron geochemistry and environmental engineering, with the aim of solving
critical challenges related to sustainable development and environmental
justice.

*Research Focus*

Our lab investigates the role of iron minerals in environmental processes,
applying advanced techniques such as Mössbauer Spectroscopy and stable Fe
isotopes. Key research themes include:

   - The impact of land use changes on climate change
   - The potential for iron minerals to reduce contaminants
   - The link between Fe geochemistry and environmental injustice

*What We Offer*

   - A supportive, collaborative research environment;
   - Competitive stipend;
   - Collaboration opportunities with leading experts and international
   research partners;
   - Cutting-edge equipment: 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy available from
   Spring 2025 and access to state-of-the-art research facilities, including
   the University of Delaware Advanced Materials Characterization Lab.

*Ideal Candidate*

   - Background in Environmental Engineering, Chemistry, Geochemistry,
   Geology, or related fields;
   - Master’s degree preferred but not required;
   - Strong written and spoken English skills;
   - Passion for laboratory and fieldwork, interdisciplinary research, and
   innovative thinking;
   - Ideally ready to begin in *Spring 2025.*

*Program Overview*

The Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering (CCEE) Department
offers PhD and master’s degrees across specialized fields. Our graduate
program emphasizes collaborative research that addresses society’s most
complex environmental challenges. Learn more here:
