Brown Bag Lunches
Each of the department's core graduate programs hosts a series of informal lunchtime talks known as Brown Bags. This is a forum for both graduate students and faculty to present and discuss their ongoing work.
Brown Bags often feature faculty from other departments around the university, as well as faculty from Carnegie Mellon or visiting scholars.
All are welcome to attend.
