College of Engineering Seminars

Joe Forehand Our seminar programs are designed to share information about what faculty members and graduate students in engineering and related disciplines are doing, and to bring in speakers from off campus to help us put the work we do here in perspective.  Improved communications can open the door for collaborative research or help shine a light on a new approach to an old problem. 

Many of the departments within the college have had long-standing seminar series designed to provide faculty, graduate students and occasionally undergraduates with a chance to showcase their research, classroom and outreach efforts for their peers. 

The Samuel Ginn Lecture Series, founded in 2005, brings distinguished leaders from the academic and business communities to campus to interact with faculty and students. Lectures cover subjects such as engineering, education, entrepreneurship, global engineering issues, and engineering and business leadership.
