Carnegie Mellon Graphics Colloquium

The Carnegie Mellon Graphics Colloquium (CMGC) seeks to bring the past, present, and future of graphics research to Carnegie Mellon through in-person talks and events with high-profile speakers. We generally plan 1-2 speakers each semester, with each speaker visiting for 2-3 days to allow for a large-audience talk along with smaller events, lab visits, and in-person meetings.
