NEW CURRICULUM in Fall 2019: Please check your emails from your advisor. The new curriculum will affect current Sophomores and Freshmen for spring 2019. Those who are NOT in the BMPH concentration and have registered for CHEM 212/214 in Spring, please email Claudia Borke. She will check your transcript and potentially modify your spring schedule.
Departmental Controls: The following courses have departmental controls for Spring 2019 which will be lifted on January 7th. Nobody will be able to register for the classes until then. Seniors graduating in Spring/Summer 2019 who still need to take BENG 420, please email [log in to unmask] for an early override.

MATH 203-006 and its recitation (301), Spring 2019, is our special Bioengineering section and mandatory for our declared students. Please email Claudia Borke for an override.
Mason Core English Composition: The English department requires students to take the Literature Elective BEFORE English 302. No exceptions even in the last semester.
[FLYER] **NEW COURSE** GCH-205 Global Health Engineering: If you are still looking for a global understanding option to satisfy  Mason core in Spring 2019, Dr. Nathalia Peixoto, Dr. Shani Ross and three other professors in Global Health Engineering are developing an Engineering Global Health course.  It is actually the same GCH 205 Global Health course but incorporates engineering design approaches to develop solutions to global health problems.  Engineering, global health and other students would work on multidisciplinary teams to explore certain global health problems and develop solutions to them.

Abstract: Inspired by the tremendous success of deep generative models on generating continuous data like image and audio, in the most recent year, deep graph generative learning is becoming a promising domain which focuses on generating discrete data such as graphs. They are typically unconditioned generative models which have no control on modes of the graphs being generated. Going beyond that, in this presentation, we will talk about a new problem named Deep Graph Translation: given an input graph, we want to infer a target graph based on their underlying (both global and local) translation mapping.
Speaker's bio: Dr. Liang Zhao is an assistant professor at George Mason University. He got his PhD degree from Computer Science Department at Virginia Tech in the United States. His research interests include big data mining, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, with particular emphasis on sparse feature learning, social event forecasting, text mining, heterogeneous network modeling, and deep learning on graphs. He received the CRII award from National Science Foundation in 2018. He is named as the one of the "Top 20 Data mining Rising Star in the world" by Microsoft Academic Search in 2016.

The scene: You are 25 years into your career as faculty, dean, chair, provost or president at your dream university.
     --> What does Engineering look like?
--> What changes have been implemented?
     --> What does the student body look like? How are classes taught?
Undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral students are encouraged to submit a 90-second video where you creatively explore these topics. The winning video will be shown at the 2019 ASEE Annual Conference in Tampa and the winning team (up to two people) will win a trip to the conference, along with $3000.

Three Minute Thesis (3MT®):  Application deadline: TIME Sensitive-Registration capped at 50 students
Open now-February 15th, 2018 |PHD LEVEL
3MT® is a research communication competition where PhD students present their doctoral research to a non-specialist audience using only one single visual aid-all in three minutes. This exercise encourages graduate students to think about their research from an outsider's perspective, hones their presentation skills, and provides a forum for a cross-disciplinary exchange of exciting ideas and information. 1st Place=$1000, 2nd place=$750, 3rd place=$500
