Tschebotarioff Seminars
The Tschebotarioff
Seminars(1) are lectures
organized by the Geo-Institute Graduate Student Organization at Purdue University during the semester. Their
purpose is the enhancement of the educational development of our members
through the dissemination of knowledge of the theory and practice of geoengineering. In this context, guest speakers from both
academia and industry are invited to share their knowledge in fields
significant to the future professions of our members. The following Seminars
are scheduled for Fall 2006 (click on the arrow for an abstract and on the
camera icon for pictures from the event):

(1) The Seminars are named after the "Tschebotarioff
Club", an unofficial group of geotechnical engineering graduate students
at Purdue University, which was especially
active into organizing seminars in our department between 1985 and 1996.
