ProSem Series
The Department of Management is a collegial group and hosts a number of research-, teaching-, and outreach-oriented events. Our ProSem series is held on Fridays from noon to 1:30 p.m. and often features a visiting faculty member from another university. In addition, faculty members host a social event on the first Friday of each month, which provides an opportunity to discuss current research topics informally among faculty and PhD students.
