Dear Colleagues, We are currently looking for prospective students interested to join the Department of Geology and Geophysics at the University of Utah in Fall 2025. We seek students who are highly self-motivated, detail-oriented, have very good writing skills, and are creative thinkers. Prospective students should be enthusiastic about pursuing a career in *petrology and high-temperature geochemistry*. Experience with analytical (EPMA, SEM, ICP-MS, Petrography) or experimental (one-atmosphere furnace, piston-cylinder, hydrothermal pressure vessels) equipment are also desired skills but are not required. Research projects include, but are not limited to, magma genesis and transport, fluid-rock interactions, in situ carbon storage, hydrogen extraction, origin of ore and critical mineral deposits. The selected students will be based in person at the University of Utah, located in Salt Lake City, Utah. The graduate research assistantship will provide a tuition waiver, health insurance, and a competitive stipend. Interested students should reach out to sarah.lambart@utah.edu and/or juancarlos.deobeso@utah.edu. We want to hear about your background (attach your CV/resume) and what types of projects you would be interested in. Graduate applications are due January 15th, with requirements outlined at https://earth.utah.edu/students-graduate/index.php Sarah Lambart and Juan Carlos de Obeso -- Sarah Lambart (she/her) - sarah.lambart@utah.edu Associate Professor in Igneous Processes University of Utah - Geology and Geophysics +1-801-792-3186
