M&I Department Events

Scientific Conference
Annual scientific conference for all graduate students, postdocs, and faculty of the Stanford M&I department.

Welcome Lunch/BBQ
This traditional fall kick-off event is held annually on campus and is attended by graduate students, postdocs, faculty and staff of the Stanford M&I department.

Journal Club
First and second year graduate students attend the M&I Journal Club (MI 250) preceding a Wednesday seminar.  Invited speakers suggest one of their published articles for discussion at the journal club.  The paper is then presented by a graduate student and the hosting faculty member serves as both facilitator and resource. 

Graduate Student Retreat
Annual event that enables scientific exchange, social connectivity and cohesiveness between our M&I graduate students.  This retreat focuses on both scientific discourse and team building for the current cohort. 

The 2024 retreat details are coming soon!
