Scheduled Seminars at WWU Geology

Aproximately 4-8 times per quarter, the Geology department schedules seminar talks that are free of charge and open to the public. These are generally one of four types of talks: invited speakers who will discuss their current or recent research; members of the Geology department discussing their current research; new Masters students defending their proposed research plans; or outgoing Masters students presenting their completed projects. The public is invited to all of these, although some geological background will be necessary to follow most of the content. In addition, seating is limited in most cases, so large groups (such as a school group) cannot readily be accomodated without ample notice - contact the department office in such cases.

The schedule of talks for a quarter is generally posted near the beginning of that quarter, and is subject to revision.
