Graduate Student Seminar

2011


Back to the Graduate Student Seminar Homepage

Seminars are held on Fridays at 1:00 PM in Physics Room 298 or 299 this semester.

The seminars are given by Duke Physics graduate students and post-docs and run between 20 and 40 minutes in length. The atmosphere is intended to be friendly and that of a learning experience for everyone involved. No faculty attend the seminar, to enhance the atmosphere of a meeting of equals.

All Duke Physics graduate students are strongly encouraged to attend and all post-docs are invited.

Lunch, usually pizza, is provided.
