WITP Summer Student Symposium

The WITP holds an annual symposium each August as a venue for student members to share their research with each other and the other members of the WITP. Graduate and undergraduate students working with WITP members between May and August are invited to give a short oral presentation of their work in a somewhat formal but friendly setting. The Symposium is typically a one day event with coffee and lunch provided for all speakers and attendees; when budget allows, we sometimes invite external speakers and run the Symposium as a "mini-school" workshop over two days. It provides the students and the WITP an opportunity to showcase the world-class research in theoretical physics that is being done in Manitoba and serves to promote communication and collaboration among WITP members.
