Prospective Graduate Student Open House 2018

Name:

Graduate Student Open House 2018

Date:

March 13-14, 2018

Location:

SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory

Overview:

This is part of the two day program on March/13-14 for prospective graduate students admitted to Stanford for Fall 2018. The morning programs are at Stanford campus with research introduction and student dialogue. For the afternoons, both Stanford campus and SLAC have open office and open lab programs for both days. Tuesday March/13 has Stanford campus emphsis, while Wednesday March/14 program has SLAC emphasis.

With SLAC as an independent school in the Stanford academic system, the extensive research programs in the two faculties at SLAC also offer formal supervision for Stanford student theses. 

To help seeding the investigation of the various research opportunities, the suite of search orientation talks on the SLAC programs for the current 1st year graduate students when they started in Sep/2016 can be found in the link below:

You can also find more information visting the web pages of the various SLAC research groups
