seminar series

The RTC Seminar Series brings leading local, national, and international scientist to a public forum at RTC to speak about the latest advances in science. The Seminar Series is open to the RTC community and the public.  Please join us!

The Seminar Series is part of a graduate level course designed to give students an opportunity to hear from and interact with experts in their fields of study.  Graduate students also present talks about their own research.  This experience gives them practice speaking to an audience and allows for the exchange of ideas as they conduct their thesis research.
