Over the years, CIM has hosted a significant amount of seminars featuring researchers around the globe. CIM members have also organized and participated in seminars at 山ǿ and other universities. Recently, many seminars have been held in a hybrid format to accommodate remote participation, while CIM members continue to gather in the Zames Room in McConnell Engineering, named after CIM founding member George Zames, to share knowledge and collaborate with peers. Please find below a record of these events over the past several years.
