CS Colloquium Schedule
Link to Colorado State University Home Page

The Department of Computer Science of Colorado State University, in cooperation with ISTeC (Information Science and Technology Center), offers the CS Colloquium series as a service to all who are interested in computer science.

Some seminars may be scheduled for days other than Monday; their dates are in red. For help finding the locations of our seminar meetings, consult the on-line CSU campus map.

Students registered for CS692 will be graded by their attendance. A passing grade requires attendance of at least 70% of the seminars in one semester. Students attending the seminars that are scheduled outside the regular slot (i.e., marked red) will receive extra credits. These extra credits will be used to substitute when students have missed the regular seminars.

For questions about this page or to schedule talks, contact Ross McConnell.
Here is a list of past seminar schedules.
