Student Research is an important part of the undergraduate and graduate experience.  Dr. Bedle advises several student research projects at both levels, tailoring projects to take advantage of the student’s talents and interests.  These projects range from machine learning to seismic attribute analysis, and include seismic interpretation and petrophysical aspects.

For Fall 2022 admission, Dr. Bedle has VERY limited funding for graduate RAs.  Ideally, looking for someone interested in algorithm coding (python) for their RA work.
