This year I am helping the department organize bi-weekly departmental seminars. We aim to attract audience members from industry and computer science departments as well. Students of all levels are welcome. People not affiliated with Galatasaray are kindly requested to send an email to [email protected]. The calendar will be updated throughout the year with titles and abstracts.
