Join us for the first of three facilitated conversations on engagement, collaboration, action and creativity in graduate research!

Studies at the graduate level traditionally guide students through a series of predetermined steps (from writing a literature review and research proposal, to conducting research and producing academic outputs) which often leave little room to reflect on how to make our work accessible and actionable outside academia.In this roundtable, we push the boundaries of the ways in which we think about and produce outputs at various stages of graduate studies. Participants will be invited to reflect on what their role can be, as grad students, in creating and sharing knowledge that can be meaningful outside academia - and share examples of how they can do that concretely. We will consider the following questions (and more!):<ul><li>What does “creating impact” mean and look like in your field of study?</li><li>How can knowledge mobilization be meaningfully embedded into grad students' research process?</li><li>How might creative outputs and practices be used in academic settings?</li><li>How can interdisciplinary perspectives/approaches benefit your audience?</li></ul>J﻿oin us in person in room 120A of the McLaughlin library (there will be treats!), or online via Zoom at <a href="https://zoom.us/j/93051663077?pwd=RHVLRkRybW9MTjBpd1EvYmYrQk9Kdz09" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://zoom.us/j/93051663077?pwd=RHVLRkRybW9MTjBpd1EvYmYrQk9Kdz09</a>.W﻿e look forward to seeing you!
