The MAE Graduate Student Seminar series is a biweekly, students-only venue for presenting research in progress to an audience of your peers.
Talks are 10 or 30 minutes, held on Mondays at noon with pizza provided. The point is practice and feedback in a low-stakes room: rehearse a conference talk, present a paper you're drafting, walk through a problem you're stuck on, or give a general-interest talk about your field.
Attendance is limited to graduate students and postdocs (plus the faculty advisor, Prof. Alessandro Marinoni) so that presenters can be candid about unfinished work. Attending a full seminar counts as one of the six seminar attendances required per quarter for MAE 205.
For those enrolled in the MAE 205 course, attending a full seminar (60 minutes) will only count towards 1 out of the 6 required seminars attendances needed per quarter. The remaining 5 must be completed as dictated by the MAE 205 course, such as attending departmental seminars

Seminar Format:
Does not need to be professional! can be about your general interest or just lab progress.
Presentations can be either 10 or 30 minutes long, with flexible timing if needed.
The audience will consist of MAE graduate students from various disciplines, so presenters should aim for a broad understanding.
Audience members are encouraged to give feedback, both verbally and through feedback forms.
To maintain a comfortable environment, only graduate students and postdocs may attend. Faculty, except for the seminar faculty advisor, Prof. Alessandro Marinoni, are not permitted to attend.
The seminar series can be used to rehearse an oral presentation for an upcoming conference or for a more casual seminar describing work in progress.
