Colloquia

The UC Math Department Colloquia are most frequently held on Thursdays at 3:30 pm in Room 125 of 60WCharlton (formerly known as Sander Hall). Each title under "Topic of Talk" is a link to a detailed announcement, including date, room, building, and the speaker's abstract in .pdf format.

Refreshments are served at 2:45 pm in the Faculty & Graduate Student Lounge, Room 4118 French Hall West. This is an opportunity to meet the speaker in a casual setting. These events are free and open to students and the general public. There are no colloquia scheduled in the summer quarters.
