Where and when?
Meetings are scheduled every Tuesday from 12:30 to 1:30 PM (see specific quarter for location).
If you plan on attending, you should register for the course (UrbDP 598) for a single credit.
Requesting a day to present:
We would like to have a tentative schedule for the year laid out soon, so ...
to request a date for your presentation, or to suggest a topic or guest presenter, send e-mail to Karis Puruncajas or Phil Hurvitz. Please indicate the date you want as well as the topic you intend to present. Include files and/or links if you want.
What to present?
The colloquium can be as formal or informal as you want, but if it is your day you need to lead the session. In the past sessions have been used for such purposes as:
- job talks
- practice sessions for conferences or other public speaking engagements
- "bouncing ideas" about research topics
Presenters should bring their own laptops if they need to present PowerPoint or other projected media (the room has a dedicated projector). Send any relevant files or links you want posted to Karis Puruncajas or Phil Hurvitz.
