Ninety-nine percent of Cornell’s Ph.D. students are fully funded to pursue their degrees through a combination of competitive internal and external fellowships and research and teaching assistantships. Funding packages include tuition, fees, health insurance, and a living allowance or stipend. Our base stipend rates for fellowships and assistantships are equivalent, consistent across graduate fields, and competitive with top other U.S. universities.

Research master’s and professional degree programs at Cornell provide limited financial assistance. The terms of the awards may vary according to the program. For more information, please contact the individual professional program.

Tuitions and Costs

Tuition varies with field and degree program. Research degrees (M.S., M.A., and Ph.D.) are assessed different tuition rates than professional degrees.

Assistantships and Fellowships

Assistantships are an arrangement in which financial support is given to a graduate student who engages in teaching and/or research in furtherance of the university’s academic mission, as well as his or her graduate education. A fellowship provides financial support to graduate students to pursue graduate studies without associated teaching or research responsibilities.

Graduate school can be affordable with the right financial planning and support.

St. Thomas is committed to assisting our graduate students in finding the financial aid options that best suit their needs. Financial aid is awarded based on the average costs for a student attending specific graduate programs and the financial aid types for which an individual student is eligible. Some financial aid awards are determined by the academic departments and reported to the Graduate Financial Aid Office.

In no case can the total dollar amount of all combined financial aid awards exceed the total cost of attendance budget for the program as determined by the Graduate Financial Aid Office, but adjustments to financial aid eligibility can be reviewed on a case by case basis to consider special or unusual circumstances.

We encourage you to contact our office and have a conversation with either Becky Stevenson or Chad Nosbusch to review your financial aid options.

PhD opportunity in Soil Science and Digital Agriculture! I am particularly excited to post this PhD position under the project Farm Scan that aims to improve digital agriculture in the area of continuous soil monitoring using decomposable sensor nodes. If interested, please get in touch!

Funded PhD opportunity FarmScan: Real-time data collection for soil monitoring
from decomposable sensors Funded by the Green ERA-HUB on Agri-Food and Biotechnology
through the Irish Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM)
Stipend for scholarship: €25,000 (tax-free) per annum
plus tuition fee contributions of €6,000 p.a.
Project Duration: 4 years
Based at University College Dublin

Enhancing agricultural productivity while minimizing environmental impact is crucial in
the face of global climate challenges. Detailed knowledge of soil conditions, moisture,
nutrients, and pest spread with high spatial resolution can increase agricultural yields
while reducing the need for irrigation, fertilizers, and pesticides. The more farmers
know about their fields, the more targeted and effective actions they can take. Satellite
data provides a good starting point but suffers from poor spatial resolution and limited
data quality. Ground-based sensors are more accurate but require significant effort
for manual deployment and must be recovered at the end of their life. This PhD will
guide the development of decomposable soil sensors by defining the requirements for
optimizing soil functions and soil microbial processes to ensure that the sensor nodes
are designed in a way that supports precision agricultural management. In controlled
environmental chambers at UCD, decomposability in soil will be measured to ensure
that sensor nodes do not negatively impact soil health by assessment of chemical and
biological indicators. In the field, agronomic trials will assess the decomposable
sensors performance in providing real time data collected at field scale for a whole
crop season. Field trials will also assess the lifespan of the sensors and their dynamics
of mass loss and functioning in real field conditions

Requirements: The candidate should have a good primary degree (first or 2.1 Honours) and/or Master’s in Soil Science, Agricultural Science/Environmental Sciences/Geography or related disciplines. They should be prepared to work in a professional manner in a multidisciplinary and multicultural team and engage with collaborators. Candidates should demonstrate the ability to work on laboratory and
field-based experiments, write reports, prepare journal articles, deliver presentations,
work independently and as part of a team. Previous lab experience and publications
in soil science and agronomy are an advantage. Academic English certification is
required.
Awards: The PhD will be conducted under the primary supervision of
Dr. Sharon O’Rourke (https://people.ucd.ie/sharon.orourke1) and Dr. Tamíris da Costa
(https://people.ucd.ie/tamiris.dacosta) at UCD School of Biosystems and Food
Engineering.

Stipend for scholarship: €25,000 (tax-free) per annum plus tuition fee contributions of €6,000 p.a. Both EU/UK and international candidates are welcomed.
Project Duration: 4 years
Expected project commencement date: 1st May 2025
Application procedure: To apply, please complete this Google form and upload your
full CV, cover letter and copies of degree transcript by 12 noon on 18th April 2025.
Please provide any relevant details on research/work experience and study
motivation in your CV and cover letter. In your CV, please provide contact details of
two referees (we will not contact them without your permission).
