The Departmental Seminar Series is a forum for
researchers to share their ideas and forge collaborative
relationships.
Held every Thursday from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. in Sidney Smith Hall, Room 1085, 100 St. George Street. Light refreshments will be served at 3:10 p.m.
Occasionally, seminars are held on a different day or at a different time. Check the listing below. There are no seminars during the summer or during exam weeks.
If you wish to invite a speaker (or speak yourself), or if you have any questions/comments/suggestions, please contact Sarah Johns, Seminar Coordinator. Note that the time slots listed as TBA are still available.
All are welcome to attend. We especially encourage graduate student participation at our Seminar Series.
