SciMath Colloquium

The SciMath Colloquium is a biweekly seminar reporting current research in Mathematics and the Quantitative Sciences, with special emphasis given to the empirical applications of the mathematical ideas and the mathematical aspects of the physical sciences.  The talks are presented at an advanced under-graduate level, and all faculty and students are cordially invited to attend.

Unless noted otherwise, all talks are at 3:30 PM in Copeland Hall, Room 130.

If you have any questions – or would like to give a presentation -- please contact Aaron Clark (clarka1@unk.edu), Michael Larsen (LarsenML@unk.edu), or Liubov Kreminska (kreminskal1@unk.edu).
