If you are interested in working with us, please write to Dr. Jeremy Guest and include your CV and a brief statement of your research interests and goals. Prof. Guest is in the Environmental Engineering and Science (EES) group, the Energy-Water-Environment Sustainability (EWES) program, and the Sustainable and Resilient Infrastructure Systems (SRIS) program, all within the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering. However, students from any department or university may work with our group.

If you are considering attending the University of Illinois for graduate school, you must apply to our graduate program – application information for the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering can be found here. Please indicate on your application that you are interested in working with Prof. Guest.

Prospective graduate students are encouraged to apply for fellowships, such as those from the National Science Foundation, Environmental Protection Agency, Hertz Foundation, or Fulbright (for international students). Applying for fellowships is not only an opportunity to develop your scientific thoughts in writing, but fellowship funding offers you greater freedom in creating a project that is in line with your personal interests.
