Nick Eaves, Associate Professor at the University of Windsor, is recruiting a PhD student for the NanoACE group beginning in May 2027. The project focuses on computational modeling of the gas-phase synthesis of carbon quantum dots, fluorescent carbon nanoparticles used widely in sensing. The student will develop models tracing carbon from molecular precursors through the formation of the first nanoparticles. Research methods will include population balance methods, kinetic Monte Carlo, and molec...

Questions
Should I email professors before submitting my PhD application?
Yes. A well-targeted email can significantly improve your chances in many research-based programs.
What should I include in my first email to a professor?
A brief introduction, research interests aligned with the professor’s work, CV, and (if available) publication links.
How long should I wait before following up with a professor?
Typically 7–14 days. One polite follow-up is considered acceptable.
Is it better to send the same email to many professors?
No. Personalized emails that clearly match the professor’s research receive far better response rates.
Do I need a full research proposal when contacting professors?
Usually not initially — a short research summary is sufficient unless the professor specifically requests a full proposal.
