Doctoral Seminar Speaker Schedule

Seminars that students are required to attend (and submit write-ups for) will be posted here as they are scheduled. Note I will also be sending out announcements on Piazza when a seminar has been scheduled so that you have sufficient warning.

We also strongly encourage you to meet with the speakers later in the afternoon to hear more about their research, especially if you are interested in pursuing an academic career. The slot for meeting with students is almost always on the same day as the talk around 4/4:30PM. If you want to meet with the speaker but don't know where/when, just ping me and I'll let you know the details.
