This assistantship is designed to support exceptional full-time Ph.D. students at Texas A&M University, who have completed a master’s and are conducting high-priority water-related research in the following priority focus areas:

• Water security,
• Reuse and conservation,
• Technology and policy innovation, and
• Integrated water resources management.

The annual assistantship provides a $25,000 stipend, benefits, tuition support up to $5,550 and discretionary funds of up to $2,500 for research-related expenses (i.e. supplies, publication costs, and travel).

Although the assistantship is for one-year of support, Ph.D. students may reapply each year for additional funding provided they meet the year two criteria indicated in the PDF on the right.
