The Nanotechnology Student Advisory Council (NSAC) hosts a Birck Nanotechnology Center Seminar Series on Thursdays at 10:30AM (Fall 2008), in Birck 1001.

The seminars should last approximately 45 minutes with 15 minutes for questions/comments. NSAC’s goals include a mixture of professors and graduate students presenting their research. Professors should plan on presenting an overview of their research at a level geared toward recruiting new grad students or reporting to a funding agency.

Please note that presentations will be videotaped and posted to the BNC website in Breeze format. Graduate students may present on research or on a “journal club” article. Remember that these seminars are a great opportunity to practice your prelim or thesis defense before presenting to your committee. If you are giving a talk at an upcoming conference, this is a great opportunity to practice your presentation here first. If your talk is short (15–20 minutes), pair up with another grad and you both can present one Thursday.

Interested parties should contact Annie Cheever; acheever@ecn.purdue.edu. If you have questions, please contact Annie or Kalapi Biswas (kgbiswas@purdue.edu, NSAC research awareness chair).
