Group meeting

From NMSL

We hold regular meetings for discussion and for every student to update the group on his/her progress. In some of the meetings, graduate students present talks summarizing their research progress so far.

The meetings are good opportunities for students to practice their presentation skills and to get constructive feedback from the group on their research. The meetings keep the group members informed about different research problems being addressed in the group. They are also very helpful in finding research topics, especially for new students.

Everybody is welcome to attend. Meeting time: changes each semester. Location: TASC1 8208.
