Research Seminars
Tuesday, 04 October 2005
The departmental seminar series brings distinguished researchers and practitioners from other universities and businesses to present their latest work. In addition, informal research seminars are organized in order to exchange information and to discuss ideas arising from the research work in progress. The students, research staff, visiting scholars, and faculty members participate in these seminars.
Fellowships and Assistantships

The department aims to support all graduate students requesting aid through a combination of fellowships and assistantships. The fellowships vary in amount and detailed provisions. The amounts of financial assistance through assistantships are fixed as indicated in the general section on awards and financial assistance at the beginning of this announcement.

Assistantships in research are available for students who are prepared to enter one of the research programs conducted by the department. The research problem usually becomes the basis for the thesis or dissertation. Assistantships in instruction are available to both entering and continuing graduate students. The amount of work required is consistent with a full-time graduate program.

Continuation of support is recommended on the basis of satisfactory academic performance.
