STEM News Tip: Coming events

Welcome to Fall 2021! There are many exciting STEM events coming up, both in person and virtual.

The Physics Colloquium returns! Today’s speaker is Manuel Franco Sevilla on B decay and interesting LHCb results. You can also read more about his work in our recent profile of Dr. Franco Sevilla here.

The Colloquium continues every Tuesday this semester. The series will also include several important special events:

  Also upcoming at UMD is the STEAM Salon series

  • September 29: Meredith Gore

  • October 20: Simone Nicole Durham

 And watch for upcoming events in the CMNS Science on Tap series!

 

And be sure to check out these events elsewhere, as well.

And coming up in October-November is the Maryland STEM Festival

 

Mark your calendars today!
