All students are required to have a faculty sponsor in the EPA at SDSU, willing to accept them into his or her laboratory as a condition of acceptance to the PhD program. This faculty member will ultimately act as their Major Professor for the Ph.D. research and dissertation.
Prospective students are strongly encouraged to contact faculty whose research interests are compatible with their own to determine if these faculty are accepting students, and if so, the students should discuss the research interests of the faculty and their own interests. Most faculty members would like to see a curriculum vitae and a statement of research interests from prospective students.
Students must meet eligibility requirements at both the UC Davis campus and the SDSU campus.
