Special Fellowhip Programs for Graduate Students
The Department participates in several multi-department programs that provide support for graduate students to perform research in collaboration with departments in other Johns Hopkins divisions or nearly institutes. Further details on these programs are below.
Application to all programs is through the regular application procedure https://app.applyyourself.com/?id=jhu-grad. Interest in special programs should be included in statement of interests.
IGERT Water, Climate, and Health
This NSF-funded program provides training in understanding and assessing threats to water resources and health posed by climate change, and the development of innovative adaptive strategies that respond to these threats. The program includes place-based capstone courses (in the Chesapeake Bay, Peruvian Amazon, and Nile River basin), and is a collaboration among the Schools of Engineering, Arts & Sciences, Public Health, and Medicine at JHU and Howard University.

IGERT Modeling Complex Systems
This NSF-funded multidisciplinary training program focuses on of science-based coupling of multi-physics models at different scales, and the use of computational simulations to address critical processes, such as energy production, environmental protection, and infrastructural integrity. The program includes faculty and students from several engineering departments, the Department of Physics and Astronomy, and the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences.

This graduate program is part of Goddard Earth Sciences Technology and Research (GESTAR) --- a research collaboration between NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), Universities Space Research Association (USRA), Morgan State University, JHU and other partners. Through this program, JHU PhD students can perform research at NASA GSFC, and will be co-advised by NASA staff and JHU faculty. Students will spend a significant part of their research experience in residence at GSFC, and will have access to resources and facilities at GSFC. Areas of research include, but are not limited to, atmospheric, climate, hydrological, and oceanic sciences. Further information can be found at http://gestar.usra.edu/students/
