Nominate a CISE Speaker

CISE welcomes speaker nominations for Seminars, Invited Lectures, Industry Roundtables, and other events from affiliated faculty and students. Faculty are encouraged to nominate a maximum of 2 speakers per semester. Please complete the form below for consideration.

Specifically, for CISE Seminars, we will send your request to the Seminar Organizing Committee (SOC): Professors Wenchao Li, Alex Olshevsky, and Sheila Russo. The SOC will give special attention to (i) area coverage (ii) high-visibility or strategic speakers and (iii) local speakers. Upon SOC acceptance, CISE will contact the host who nominated the speaker. Hosts are responsible for arranging the event date with the speaker.

When the speaker has accepted a date, the faculty host will send an email to Christina Polyzos with the speaker’s contact information and seminar date. CISE will send an official invitation, and as needed, can arrange hotel accommodations. Speakers must make their own travel arrangements. Seminars are typically held Fridays at 3PM.
