BCH2020L
Master's Seminar Course in Biochemistry
 |
|
|
This is the Wednesday
afternoon (4:00 pm) student seminar series. Attendance
at and participation in this course are mandatory.
Attendance is monitored by a sign-up sheet. Although you
are not expected to attend every seminar, you will be
penalized if you have a poor attendance record. The penalty
will be an essay assignment(s) on seminar topics that
you have missed. A student in the M.Sc. program, or
a student scheduling a transfer exam, must give at least
one half-hour seminar. No formal grade is assigned
to BCH2020L as it is a credit/non-credit course.
However, you will receive feedback on your seminar from
faculty immediately following the presentations of the
day. You will also receive a summary of evaluation forms
completed by the faculty. You remain registered in this
course until you complete your M.Sc. or transfer into
the Ph.D. program, at which time you are assigned credit
for the course.
Seminar Format
Your seminar should include sufficient background information
on the goals of your project and the experimental approaches
that you use for the diverse expertise of the members
of the audience. You are strongly encouraged to rehearse
your seminar presentation and to think about how you might
answer questions that you may receive. You are advised
to keep PowerPoint animations to a minimum as the audience
generally finds these distracting rather than instructive.
Be aware of your colour choices. Avoid red on a black
background!
Seminar Sign-up
Sign-up for a seminar slot is done mid-summer through
the BGSU. You will receive an email from a BGSU representative.
When you sign-up for a seminar inform your supervisor
and committee members of your scheduled date as they are
expected to be present at your seminar. Two weeks before
your presentation date, remind them that your seminar
is coming up. At this same time also give the title of
your seminar to Vicki (victoria.ilgacs@utoronto.ca) with
a cc to the Chair of the Department.
It is your responsibility
to ensure that the date that you sign-up for
your seminar, or are assigned, is convenient
for your supervisor and supervisory committee
members. Two weeks before your seminar date,
you must remind them that your seminar is
coming up.
Also remind your committee members that
Departmental Guidelines require that they
be present at your seminar. This is true even
if they have just attended a seminar that
you presented elsewhere or if you have just
had, or are about to have, a committee meeting.
