PhD Opportunity in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Nanoscience, and Energy at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi

Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi is advertising a PhD opportunity in Mechanical Engineering and/or Electrical Engineering within the Nano Sensing and Energy Lab (NSEL), led by Associate Professor Iltai Isaac Kim . The position is aimed at talented, passionate doctoral students interested in interdisciplinary engineering , especially nanoscience , nanotechnology , and research connected to quantum information science/technology . The lab’s current research focus includes plasmonic photocatalytic reactions , near-surface phenomena such as wetting and phase-change heat transfer, electrochemical systems , and ultrasensitive sensing and energy conversion based on nanophotonics , optical diagnostics , and thermal-fluids . NSEL also collaborates with Sandia National Laboratories , offering access to cutting-edge equipment and a strong national-lab network. The post states that students can pursue a doctoral degree in engineering (mechanical, electrical, or civil), and that the doctoral program was recently approved and will start in Fall 2026 . Funding is described as an RA position with a monthly stipend of $2,000 , plus benefits and tuition/fees coverage . Funding sources include DOE BES , NSF , and TAMUS .
