General Info

The Student Seminar Series is an informal research seminar by and for SCS graduate students from noon to 1 pm on Fridays. Lunch is provided by the Computer Science Department (personal thanks to Sharon Burks and Debbie Cavlovich!). At each meeting, a different student speaker will give an informal, 40 minute talk about his/her research, followed by questions/suggestions/brainstorming. We try to attract people with a diverse set of interests, and encourage speakers to present at a very general, accessible level.

So why are we doing this and why take part? In the best case scenario, this will lead to some interesting cross-disciplinary work among people in different fields and people may get some new ideas about their research. In the worst case scenario, a few people will practice their public speaking and the rest get together for a free lunch.

This page is updated roughly once a week, usually on Fridays.

Guideline & Speaking Requirement Need-to-Know

Note: Step #1 and #3 below are applicable to ALL SSS speakers.

SSS is an ideal forum for SCS students to give presentations that count toward fulfilling their speaking requirements. The specifics, though, vary with each department. For instance, students in CSD will need to be familiar with the notes in Section 8 of the Ph.D. document and follow the instructions outlined on the Speakers Club homepage. Roughly speaking, these are the steps:

1. Schedule a talk with SSS, first checking this page for available slots, then emailing sss@cs at least SIXTEEN DAYS before your scheduled talk. You can schedule AT MOST THREE talks per semester.
2. After you are confirmed with your SSS slot, go to the Speakers Club Calendar and schedule your talk at least three weeks in advance of the talk date.
   
3. Send your talk title, abstract, additional info (like "Joint work with..." or "In Partial Fulfillment of the Speaking Requirement"), and a picture of yourself (preferably jpeg) to sss@cs, at the latest, TEN DAYS before your scheduled talk.
4. On the day of your talk, make sure you print Speakers Club evaluation forms for your evaluators to use.

Students outside of CSD will need to check with their respective departments regarding the procedure. As another example, ISRI students fulfill their speaking requirements by attending a semesterly Software Research Seminar and giving X number of presentations per school year. If you have experience with your department that might help others in your department, please feel free to contribute your knowledge by emailing us. Thank you!
