UM's departmental seminars
Our affiliated researchers are housed across multiple UM departments and programs. Public seminars are one of the best ways to learn more about their current research projects. Below, we've collated information about next week's seminars (updated every Monday), as well as links to view the upcoming seminar schedules from each department/program.
Although we will ensure that the links to the schedules will remain up-to-date, we are not accountable for whether each department keeps the schedules up-to-date! Please reach out to a specific department if you have questions about seminar schedules.
