Pathways to Science Series
The Council of Diversity & Community Speaker Series was designed to bring distinguished speakers from various STEM disciplines and various backgrounds to MSU to share their experiences. In addition to their scientific talk, each invited speaker also gave a "Pathways to Science" seminar, describing their experiences through their careers while meeting with graduate students and post-docs. Each seminar was cohosted by NatSci and one of the units.
