Colloquium Series
The Department of Materials Science & Engineering is pleased to announce The George and Dot Bishop Advanced Materials Colloquium Series, which was made possible by a generous gift from the Bishop family in memory of their parents.
Led by a distinguished expert, each seminar provides an insightful look into industry and academic practices and events. Invited speakers from industry, government, and other academic departments are regularly included in the series. The seminars are regularly held in person in 200 Olin Hall during the fall and spring semesters or, in partnership with the College of Science, in 100 Hunter Auditorium. Suggestions for speakers are always welcome. Discussions and Q & A follow most.
