Policy Update:
Starting Spring 2022, CEE 8811 SEMM Seminar Series will no longer be offered. Currently enrolled MSCE students are allowed to follow the previous policy and can use two credits of CEE 8811 SEMM Seminar Series toward their degree.  If a currently enrolled MSCE student has taken only one credit of CEE 8811 SEMM Seminar Series, they will be allowed to alternatively use another credit of CEE 8811 CEE Cross-Cutting Research Seminar (to be given by Prof. John Taylor in Spring 2022) toward their degree.
