Research Opportunities at the Institute for Rock Magnetism

The Institute for Rock Magnetism (IRM) is one of 15 national multiuser facilities in the Earth Sciences supported by NSF to provide advanced laboratory instrumentation to the geoscience research and education communities. Research at the IRM ranges from fundamental investigations of the physics of fine-particle magnetism, to applied studies using the magnetic characteristics of rocks and sediments to investigate a wide variety of geological and surficial Earth processes. We provide access and support for visiting scientists in three categories, for which we encourage you to apply: (1) Visiting Research Fellows; (2) U.S. Student Fellows; and (3) Long-Core (U-Channel) Magnetometer Fellows. Applications are accepted twice per year (April 30 and October 30), although applications for time-sensitive projects will be accepted year round. For details, see www.irm.umn.edu.
