The Texas A&M Energy Institute is proud to announce its 2024-2025 Distinguished Lecture Series in Energy schedule, which includes prominent energy leaders from across many energy disciplines and topics. Running from September 2024 through March 2025, this cohort of experts will present the latest innovations, concepts, and topics and will be sure to spark thoughts and discussions as we all move forward together in the Energy Transition.
These lectures will be hosted in-person and online, or exclusively in-person, so be sure to check in each month on how you can learn and participate in the dialogue. Some lectures will be recorded and posted on this site, and links will be added to this page.
We look forward to seeing you at the events!
