Haverford/Bryn Mawr Bi-College Chemistry Colloquium
Each Friday afternoon (and occassionally at other times) during the academic year, students and faculty from both colleges meet together to learn about and discuss some topic of cutting-edge research in Chemistry or related fields at our departmental seminar. Each year we invite 8 to 12 leading scientists from other academic institutions, industry or government labs to make presentations at our seminar. A schedule for upcoming seminars by outside speakers is shown below; these seminars are open to the public* and frequently attract chemists from the Philadelphia area. On Friday afternoons when we do not have an outside speaker, our seminar is led by our students discussing their senior research projects.
We coordinate outside speakers with nearby Bryn Mawr College to give our students and faculty additional opportunties to hear and meet with noted chemists and other scientists doing work of interest to chemists.
* - If you wish to attend a seminar by an outside speaker, please check this page again within a week of the seminar in case there has been a change in time or location. If you wish, you may call the department office at 610 896-1187 for directions.
The listing below shows only upcoming talks (click here for a schedule for the entire semester or year). Talks scheduled at Bryn Mawr College (BMC) are shown below but not on our departmental home page. |
