FOR 501 鈥� SEMINAR: Current Issues in Forest, Rangeland & Fire Sciences
These seminars are intended to capture and highlight the diversity of disciplines and research interests in FRFS and to introduce FRFS graduate students to research beyond their individual discipline programs. The seminar provides an opportunity to invite speakers from outside the FRFS community to share research that is related to that of our faculty, research scientists, and graduate students. Importantly, the seminars provide graduate students with opportunities to participate in scholarly discussions that hone critical thinking skills.
