Department Seminars
Every Monday afternoon at 3:00, the Department of Geosciences hosts a lecture regarding various Earth science topics. The Department Seminars are composed of speakers invited by the department faculty to provide our audience with compelling discussions spanning a wide breadth of geoscience topics and contemporary research. Lectures are free and open to the public, and are a great way to learn about current research. The 2019-2020 seminar series is organized by Dr. Mark Schmitz.
