Finding a Prospective Advisor
Applicants are required to submit a DNP Departmental Form (Prospective Advisor Form) signed by your Prospective Advisor who has agreed to serve as your primary advisor upon admittance into a degree seeking graduate program. This form is submitted by the applicant as part of their application materials and can be added in the supplemental documents section under "additional/optional forms".
How to find an advisor:
The faculty in the lists below have indicated a desire to accept qualified students who align with faculty research interests and are open to consider serving as their primary advisor/committee chair. The first group are faculty within the Department of Environmental Science and Policy. The second group consists of Environmental Faculty from other units in the University. By clicking on a faculty member’s name in these lists you will be taken to their biography page. If you identify an advisor of interest, it is recommended that you email that individual and include your research interests and your resume. If they agree to advise you, they will need to complete the DNP Departmental Form (Prospective Advisor Form) and return it to you for inclusion in your application packet. Applications submitted without this form will not be processed.
