Average Course Rating

This is a professional development course for graduate students, where they will learn, practice, or enhance their skills at giving math talks. The course will run in the format of a "What is... Seminar", where each week one of the participants will present a 1 hour talk on an accessible and relatively self-contained topic, titled What is (insert your math notion of choice). In preparation for their talk, students will meet with the instructor at least once, where they will receive guidance and detailed advice to help them give a great talk. Although the definition of a "great talk" is subjective, participants should be willing to follow the instructors' advice. Graduate students at any stage of their PhD are encouraged to attend, regardless of their experience giving talks.
