Office Hours

Office Hours

The CSAIL Office Hours Initiative aims to increase interactions and research connections.

Research groups in CSAIL are providing weekly office hours, as listed below. Any member of CSAIL may drop in during an office hour to meet colleagues, learn about research, seek technical consultation, or discuss shared interests. 

CSAIL members are encouraged to attend office hours for the following purposes:

  • Exploration: To learn about the technical research occurring in the research group.
  • Connection: To meet members of CSAIL in other groups and learn about their interests.
  • Collaboration: To discuss shared topics of interest and propose possible collaborations.
  • Consultation: To seek technical input about a topic where the research group has expertise.

To participate, simply join the session of your choice by clicking on the Zoom link below. While you can join in at any time during the hour, you are encouraged to join at the start of the hour if possible. 

If you have general questions about the office hours initiative, or experience problem connecting to a session, please contact Theresa Barrera.
