The annual Graduate Student Symposium is a forum for showcasing graduate student research in the Department of Geoscience. Oral presentations on Wednesday, April 27th will be held in Room 140, Weeks Hall, followed by poster presentations on Thursday, April 28th in the Geoscience Library, Room 440, Weeks Hall. These presentations will highlight current, innovative research projects across a wide range of sub-disciplines. All UW-Madison students, faculty, and staff are invited to attend and the event is open to the public.
