Systems Seminar Series - PhD

Course Description

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2019-2020.

This is a weekly seminar course designed to give graduate students experience in improving their skills in presenting their research, judging peers' and field experts' research, as well as learning to accurately dissect and summarize the main points of a research talk. Being part of the Systems Engineering program, this course will strongly focus on developing the ability to present research in a broader context or as it relates to a larger system or process, and communicate the importance of the students' work to a more varied audience; a particularly important skill for both future "job talks" and grants' "importance paragraphs." Students' presentations will also include some research depth as part of developing stronger conference talks and to aid classmates in expanding their knowledge.

When Offered Fall, Spring.

Permission Note Enrollment limited to: PhD students only.
