Ph.D. Exit Seminars

Exit seminars are an important final opportunity for Ph.D. candidates in the Graduate Field of Development Studies to share their dissertation results with the field, the university, and the general public. Join us to celebrate their accomplishments in the program.

Seminars typically take place Monday afternoons in B73 Warren Hall and via Zoom.
