We are always interested in working with motivated undergraduate students with an interest in biological research. Opportunities are available for both computer science majors, biology or Plant science majors interested in working in the laboratory.

• UDel Undergraduate Research Program

• Undergraduate Research Scholar Programs

Graduate Research Opportunities

We have many research projects for prospective graduate students. Please contact us if you're interested in the following:

• Molecular mechanisms of plant disease resistance.

• Structure, function and evolution of proteins involved in pathogen recognition.

• Plant gene expression, molecular biology and genomics.

Currently, graduate students are accepted through the Department of Plant and Soil Sciences but we will anticipate taking students in the graduate program of the Department of Biology. Also, we offer a Ph.D. in Plant Biology and Biotechnology that is offered as part of a joint program between the University of Delaware and Dupont.

Postdoctoral Research Opportunities

If you're a new Ph.D. or a post-doc with several years of training, we may have a good research project for you. Please contact us as we occasionally have positions for new post-docs. In addition to interesting independent research projects, we offer a supportive research environment, excellent facilities and strong ties to industry and other academic laboratories.
