Graduate students
Current students at institutions other than the University of Michigan should apply directly to the Chemical Engineering graduate program (link). We do not admit graduate students directly into our research groups.
Current students at University of Michigan should contact Prof. Nina Lin (ninalin (at) umich.edu) to set up a meeting.
Postdoctoral Research Fellow
