Graduate Seminar (CHBE 598 - Winter Term 1 and 2)

All faculty members and graduate students have a chance to get together and learn about their colleagues’ thesis projects. It is a requirement for every masters and doctorate student to present before they graduate. The event provides a great opportunity for academic minds to mingle and students to practice their presentation skills. Professors provide feedback to the students to encourage improvement.
