Christi (TAMU-CC) is seeking a doctoral student to work on the analysis of urban
water infrastructure systems in coastal regions. The NSF-funded research
project aims to better understand the resilience of urban water systems through
the integration of deep learning and hydrological-hydraulic modeling with the
consideration of climate change, hazard mitigation, and environmental
sustainability. <span style="color:black">Within the
