>*  Project-based: seminar participants will work in small interdisciplinary
>groups, reviewing readings and engaging in research on focused topics. 
>
>*  External collaborations: seminar projects will work with researchers at
>university research labs around the country and become a productive part of
>the
>larger research community.

requires
