Graduate Logic Seminar

The Graduate Logic Seminar is an informal space where graduate students and professors present topics related to logic which are not necessarily original or completed work. This is a space focused principally on practicing presentation skills or learning materials that are not usually presented in a class.

• When: Mondays 3:30-4:30 PM
• Where: Van Vleck B223
• Organizers: Uri Andrews and Hongyu Zhu

The talk schedule is arranged at the beginning of each semester. If you would like to participate, please contact one of the organizers.

The seminar will be run as a 1-credit seminar Math 975 in Fall 2023. If you are not enrolled but would like to audit it, please contact Uri Andrews and Hongyu Zhu.
