MREC Seminar series

 

All seminars will be held at lunchtime (noon) in room 185 unless noted. Everyone is invited. Seminars are normally scheduled on the 3rd or 4th Friday of each month although ad hoc seminars can be scheduled at other times if needed.  Seminars will normally be 30 – 45 minutes.


Faculty: To keep things interesting, please ask your students and visiting colleagues to give a seminar. I can provide an ‘official request’ if needed.


Thanks to everyone who provides a seminar to our group. Steve Arthurs
