We invite you to join us for an upcoming information session for prospective students interested in pursuing a PhD in our department.
This session will provide an opportunity to learn more about our PhD program, our faculty research, and the interdisciplinary research environment within the department. Faculty members will highlight current and emerging research areas and discuss the types of research questions and projects that PhD students may pursue.

The session will include:
- An overview of the PhD program and its interdisciplinary research focus
- Presentations on faculty research areas and current research opportunities
- Discussion of the qualities and qualifications of successful PhD applicants
