The purpose of Grad-Seminar is to provide an informal environment, where current and former Mathematics and Statistics graduate students can discuss just about anything relating to their studies.  Grad-Seminar allows students the opportunity to talk freely about their research findings, teaching experiences, Departmental qualms, and post-graduate school concerns with their peers.  We also occasionally invite faculty members from the Department, including their international visitors, to give some insight into their particular field of research.

Grad-Seminar generally meets on Fridays at 2:45 on the first floor of the Earth Science Building.  If you would like more information or might be interested in giving a talk, please contact Carly Anderson at ca488222 @ albany.edu
