MSU Ecology Seminar Series
Spring Semester 2026
Thursdays at 3:30-5:00 pm in 304 Lewis Hall.
Presentations will not be offered virtually.
The basis of the Spring Ecology Seminar Series is for Ecology graduate students to gain experience presenting scientific information using a variety of communication methods. Graduate students prepare several presentations and topics presented in a variety of formats. The first session consists of presentations focused on the foundation for their research and the next session is focused on their methods and results (if they have any to share). The second session is whiteboard only (i.e., no slides).
Attendance from campus and extended communities is encouraged and requested.
All who attend will be invited to evaluate each presentation.
Advance notice is requested so that accommodations can be made for special needs. Contact ecology@montana.edu or (406) 994-4548.
Podcasts

In addition to presentations, students are interviewed about their research and what
inspired them to get into a career in conservation for the podcast “Today’s Voices
of Conservation Science.” You can listen to the podcast on Buzzsprout or on iTunes or Stitcher.
