The UTSA Academy of Distinguished Researchers has established a Distinguished Lecture Series which will feature one distinguished lecture per semester.  The Spring series will highlight Dr. Eric Link, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs at the University of North Dakota. His presentations will focus on Fictional Science.  Formal lecture open to the public plus opportunities for interactions with faculty and students who share the speaker’s research interests.

Audiences are exposed to the thoughts and insights of some of the most prominent scholars of our time.  The Lecture Series, like the Academy itself, seeks to foster and promote excellence in research, discovery, and training; advance and sustain UTSA as a premier research university; and promote the values of research excellence, integrity, diversity, collaboration, creativity, and ingenuity.
