The Science, Technology and Security Seminars, which were suspended during the 2009-2010 academic year, featured advanced graduate students, faculty, and visiting scholars presenting their current research on contemporary issues in international security that intersect with science and technology. In 2009, CISAC combined the social science and science seminars into a weekly 'Research Seminar on International Security, Natural Science and Social Science' series on Thursdays from 3:30 to 5 p.m. in the Reuben W. Hills Conference Room, East 207, Encina Hall. They are free and open to the public.
The STS seminars, in the past, were held every Wednesday, October through June, from 12:00 to 1:30 p.m. in the Reuben W. Hills Conference Room.
