Colloquium

The Colloquia of the Department of Mathematics are normally held on Thursdays at 4:30pm in MA 240, preceded by Tea at 3:30pm in the Math Tower Top Floor Lounge (MW724), and followed by a dinner.

Our Colloquium is intended to be a vehicle for invited speakers to communicate to the entire department significant new developments in their fields of research, in a manner accessible to a broad mathematical audience. Graduate students and visitors are particularly welcome.
