Seminar series

Beginning in January 2011, the IGERT program introduced a bimonthly student led seminar series. The members of the Student Leadership Council select and invite presenters, develop the schedule for the semester, publicize the series, and moderate the sessions. To date, five sessions have been held and two more are planned, including one external speaker from UC Irvine. In a recent focus group, all students cited the seminar series as one of the most important IGERT activities. They credit it with helping them to form a cohesive group, develop personal relationships with faculty, and learn about research within and outside their discipline.
