"Food for Thought"
Hosted periodically, the Knowledge Exchange is a multidisciplinary forum for researchers, faculty, students and practitioners. In these hour-long lunchtime sessions, speakers present research ideas, research in progress, or business problems and solicit feedback from Knowledge Exchange participants. The sessions are interactive and the topics diverse. In the past, speakers and participants have come from the business community and from a wide variety of academic disciplines such as Computing, Sociology, Health Sciences, French Studies, and Geology, in addition to disciplines within the School of Business.
If you would like to receive notifications of upcoming Knowledge Exchange sessions, or if you are interested in presenting your ideas, research, or business problem at a Knowledge Exchange session, please contact us at monieson@business.queensu.ca
