Seminar
Each student must present a frontier research article OR a Review article in the classs
through the end of the semester. There should be 5 speakers for each week. The date of
1
presentations depends on the number of students attending the class so that the dates
are announced to be later. Time duration of presentation is nearly 30 min. The
presentations shorter than 25 min is not acceptable. A set of representative topics are
listed below.This list can be extended according to your research topic.
