OPENINGS:
Prospective graduate students:
We are open to incoming graduate students for Fall 2025. To get in contact with our lab you must have applied and been accepted to one of the MSU's PhD programs. The KunzeLab is affiliated with the Electrical and Computer Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Optics & Photonics, Bioengineering, Molecular Biosciences, or Material Science programs. More specific we are looking to hire a new graduate students in microtechnology, microfluidics, bioelectronics, bioMEMS for Fall 2025. Read more about the application process on our OPENING page. Prospective undergraduate students at Montana State University: Get in contact with the P.I. if your are interested in 290R, 490R, USP/INBRE student projects in the area of BioMEMS, Bioelectronics or Neuroengineering.
