Colloquia

The Department of Physics hosts colloquia every semester. Each semester speakers from around the world from various physics topics are asked to give a talk on relevant and innovative research. Colloquia are held on Thursdays.

Light refreshments will be served at 3:15pm outside PSF 101, and Colloquium lecture will begin at 3:30pm in PSF 101.
