BOT 401 - Seminar Series

Students enrich their educational program by actively participating in a semester-long series of seminars presented by outstanding visiting researchers. Students are directly involved in the development of the series by inviting speakers whose research and areas of expertise parallel individual student interests. Students serve as hosts for their invited speakers, coordinating visit details with appropriate Botany program staff, students, and faculty. Students also evaluate each seminar presentation in terms of the quality of the research presented and the quality of the style of the presentation. These evaluations are discussed by all participants in several class meetings over the course of the semester. This course may be repeated up to 4 times for credit.
