Kansas State University Graduate Scholarship Details

The Kansas State University Scholarship is a funding opportunity for international students seeking postgraduate studies in the USA.

Research in the Ecohydrology Lab at K-State focuses on interactions between ecological and hydrological processes in grasslands, savannas, and shrublands. 

The lab and its principal investigators aim to foster a fun, collaborative, supportive lab environment for students to grow their research skills and create long-lasting networks of peers, collaborators, and mentors.

Kansas State University Scholarship Benefits

The Kansas State University Scholarship includes graduate teaching and research assistantships that includes;

  • tuition
  • $30,771 living stipends per year
  • health insurance

Research Themes: 

The Graduate Assistant will be responsible for:

  • Subsurface impacts of land-use / land-cover change – How do woody encroachment, agriculture, and land management strategies alter the subsurface (root distributions, soil structure, etc.) in ways that influence water fluxes in grasslands? What are the consequences for local water yield? 
  • Plant water-use strategies and coexistence in water-limited ecosystems – How do differences in rooting and water-use strategies influence competition, coexistence, and ecosystem resilience during drought and other climate extremes? 
  • Drivers and consequences of preferential flow – How do root systems and rainfall characteristics (intensity, duration, etc.) interact to determine preferential flow occurrence and its ecological consequences (nutrient/pollutant / solute transport, microbial activity, carbon cycling, etc.)?
