Monthly Engineering Seminar Series Wednesday April 9, 2008 4 pm in room 214 of the UGA Student Learning Center Michael Oliveri Chair of Digital Media Lamar Dodd School of Art The Aesthetics of Science     The underlying theme of the monthly series is to highlight technological advances that serve as a catalyst for on-campus dialogues between engineering and non-engineering faculty and students Increased specialization has created the need for an ability to synthesize the great quantities of information that inform policy decisions on a variety of issues and subjects. The UGA Faculty of Engineering was established in part to chart new paths in engineering research and instruction. These new paths are all characterized by inputs from multiple disciplines. At The University of Georgia, one of our greatest strengths is the intellectual rigor and curiosity we bring to a multiverse of subjects, from sociology to genectics, from art to engineering. Joining classical thought with leading-edge research is only one unique aspect of the academic environment that is UGA. Increasingly, connections between engineering and the humanities are becoming much more relevant to society. One of the primary purposes of the Engineering seminar series is to create a forum where these overlapping voices can be heard, where the research aligning various disciplines around a central set of problems can be discussed and debated. Please join us, beginning March 22, 2007 at 4 pm in the Student Learning Center in room 150, for the first in this series of multidisciplinary seminars focused on different aspects of the interwoven complexity of the world around us.            About our speaker April 9, 2008   Michael Oliveri Michael Oliveri Chair Digital Media The University of Georgia Lamar Dodd School of Art moliveri@uga.edu Education 1995 M.F.A.
