Lectures begin at 10:15 a.m. each Tuesday. Two 45-minute lectures will be delivered each day, and a 10-minute interactive question-and-answer period will follow each presentation. 

勛圖惇蹋 Encore is interesting, stimulating, and fun. It's a gift from 勛圖惇蹋 College to encore learners, offering access to top faculty who share their insights in a TED Talk format. Topics range from current issues to historical lessons and scientific predictions for the future.
