Graduate Assistantships in Areas of National Need (GAANN) Program:

Advanced Construction Methods for Infrastructure Resilience

GANN Ph.D, Fellowship Opportunites

The Zachry Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Texas A&M
University is pleased to invite applications to its GAANN program in “Infrastructure
Resilience in the Context of Advanced Construction Methods” supported by the
Department of Education. Advanced construction methods, such as concrete 3D
printing, offer a range of advantages including construction rapidity, lower
environmental impacts, potentially lower construction costs, and, if properly designed,
resilience to hazards. We are looking for qualified applicants with B.S. and/or M.S.
degrees who are interested in teaching and multidisciplinary research in this exciting
new field to start in Fall 2022. The GAANN Fellows will also be provided with various
professional development opportunities, including international experiences. All
GAANN fellows will have access to Texas A&M’s state-of-the-art experimental
facilities, such as the Center for Infrastructure Renewal and its large-scale
3D printing capabilities. Applicants must be US citizens or US permanent residents.
Applications from individuals from underrepresented groups and minorities are
highly encouraged. For more information visit our website: https://engineering.tamu.edu/civil/admissions-andaid/scholarships-aid/gaann-program/index.htm
