About the Conference
The 12th annual Chemistry Graduate Student
Symposium is
being held June 4, 2013 in the Kenneth H. Keller Hall (Formerly EE/CSci) on
the University of Minnesota's Minneapolis campus. The
symposium primarily consists of research presentations by
third-year graduate students in
the Chemistry Ph.D. program. Presentations will take place
in four concurrent sessions and be 20 minutes in length
with an additional 5 - 8minutes reserved for discussion. All
presentations will be formally assessed by a committee of
faculty members and distinguished
UMN alumni. Through a generous donation to the Department, travel awards will be presented to those individuals judged to have given the
best seminar in each of the five sessions. Written feedback
will also be provided to all presenters. Additional
information about the format of the abstracts and presentations is
available.
It
is the intent of the faculty that full attendance by all departmental
faculty and students will
be a high priority. We anticipate a full day of lectures interspersed
by sponsored coffee breaks and lunch.
