• Seminar on Students Applying to Graduate Schools
  On Tuesday, Nov. 2, our department had an informal session with our students to talk to them about applying for graduate school. Many of our students wish to go to graduate school in mathematics and physics, but do not have information on schools, assistanstships, GREs and where they can get into (fall back schools). The following documents were handed out. (PDF)
