As part of our mission, the Program of Computer Graphics ("PCG") hosts conferences
and workshops, presents at national and international meetings, and hosts visiting student and professional groups.
These events disseminate the results of
our research, provide insight into state-of-the-art computer graphics capabilities and
their impact on society, and encourage greater participation in careers in math, science, and design.
Presentations of research papers are not listed here in the interests of brevity. We refer you to
our publications section for complete information on journal articles, conference
proceedings, theses, and dissertations.
