The Department of Physics and Astronomy hosts both seminars and colloquia, often on a weekly basis. Both types of talks are intended for a well-educated audience, but colloquia target non-specialized participants, being less technical and covering popular topics in physics and astronomy. Seminars are more specialized meetings, intended for an audience that is well-versed in a specific field of physics and astronomy.
The Department of Physics and Astronomy hosts colloquia on a weekly basis during the Fall and Spring semesters. A variety of topics and different fields of science are covered in these talks, with the common thread of physics and astronomy.
The NAPP (Nuclear, Astro and Particle Physics) Seminars cover topics both in the theoretical and experimental areas. Speakers from all around the world are invited to participate.
The CMP (Condensed Matter Physics) Seminars and Journal Club is a recurring meeting hosted by the Department of Physics and Astronomy , where both faculty members and graduate students will give a talk about a solid state physics' topic.
