Joint Graduate Student Seminar
The Department arranges Joint Graduate Student Seminars half-yearly, which are essential components of the graduate program. The first seminar, typically held in December, requires students to give a 20-minute talk on a microbiology, virology, or mycology topic (with approval from their respective supervisors), to showcase their knowledge and research in the field.
The second seminar, conducted in May, focuses on students providing updates on their research projects, which ultimately contribute to their theses. Supervisors and senior members of the department evaluate and grade the students’ performance during these seminars. Notably, the student delivering the most exceptional presentation in each seminar is honoured with the esteemed “Best Presentation Award.”
