Graduate research competition!

Please join the UA Department of Physics and Astronomy as a special guest for a showcase of our graduate student research, on Friday, Nov. 20, from 5-7 p.m., in the first-floor hallway of Gallalee Hall. This open-house poster presentation and competition will share projects of seasoned researchers along with those who are just getting started. Stop in any time during the evening until 6:15 to vote for your favorite presentation, and attend the awards ceremony at 6:30.

We'd be honored if you'd join us to support and encourage our future scientists and to learn more about physics research at the University. Please help us spread the word. See you there,

PH111: student talks schedule

I've made up a preliminary schedule for your talks, which you can find here.

As a reminder, talks should be about 20 minutes in length, with a question & answer period of about 5 minutes following each talk. Timing will be rather strictly enforced so we can get through all of your talks in only three class periods. Finally, keep in mind that it is expected that all group members contribute to the oral presentation.

The first set of talks is on 16 November, which is only two weeks away ...
