Welcome to the page of the PSIR Faculty Lecture Series. As a department, we like to engage with colleagues and students. The PSIR Lecture Series allows PSIR professors to share some of their findings to generate intellectual discussions as well as to receive useful feedback from their peers. We also have occasional guests from outside the department.
