Colloquium Series

General Information

The purpose of the Biology Colloquium is to bring outstanding scientists to campus to showcase their work and interact with our students. We strongly believe that these colloquia provide wonderful opportunities and expect that all students who are serious about biology will attend.

This semester, the colloquia will feature MU graduates from the past 3-9 years showing a mix of career paths available to our biology students. 

Colloquia will be held in Roddy Room 210 from 4:00 - 5:00 p.m. on Wednesdays. For further information, please contact Dr. Chris Stieha at Christopher.Stieha@millersville.edu or the Biology Department secretary at (717) 871-4321.
