Here is a brief, FAQ-style
list of important points for speakers.
Answers: There
are three kinds of talks given by postgraduates in the Department of
Mathematics. In order of when they are given by any student, they are:
Generally speaking, all postgraduate research students are
expected to give one talk (of whatever kind) per year. Notices
of seminars with talk titles and abstracts are typically posted on the Monday
before the scheduled session (12pm Fridays). To this end, all speakers are requested
to provide the Convenor with a
title and short abstract (about 100 words), at least one week before
their talks. Provisional titles or topics are also welcome at any time for
inclusion in the online schedule. In
an effort to maintain a reasonable schedule, talks will not be rescheduled without
good reason. However, if you are due to give a talk and have a very good
reason why you cannot speak at that time, please do the following as soon as
possible:
Occasionally,
due to exit or confirmation requirements of other students, it may be
necessary to bump one or more general talks to a later time. Typically, these
talks will be moved to the first available time after they were originally
scheduled. If your talk must be moved in this way, you will be contacted to
confirm the new date. Each
research postgrad is generally expected to give one seminar per year. Don't
worry; if you haven't yet given a talk this year, you will be informed of all
changes to the schedule that might affect you. If your seminar is yet to be
scheduled (or rescheduled), please contact the Convenor (in the case of general
seminars), or the Postgraduate
Coordinator (in the case of exit seminars), to arrange a date. You
can find more information about the requirements for postgraduate students in
the School of Physical Sciences on the school's 'information for PG
students' web page (including the PG Handbook in the list on the far
right of this page). If in doubt about the School requirements for the
presentation of seminars, please contact the School's student administration
staff. |
