The Spring 2021 MatSE 590 Seminars for graduate students consists of an exciting, jam-packed schedule. We have teamed up with more than 30 universities for the North American Materials Colloquium Series (NAMCS).
All seminars will be held via Zoom and graduate students will receive link information via @psu.edu email. Graduate students are required to virtually attend all 590 Seminars. If you have any questions, please email Hayley Barnes at hjc24@psu.edu.
