Brown Bag Conversations

Brown bag conversations at Sellinger School of Business and Management are informal academic gatherings where our faculty come together to present and discuss their ongoing publications (academic, pedagogical, cases), teaching innovations and ideas over lunch. These conversations provide a platform for our faculty to present their ideas and discuss potential applications of their work and gain valuable insights into their research and teaching from a diverse range of perspectives, in a supportive and collegial environment.

Presentations are often interdisciplinary and allow for the cross-pollination of ideas and the formation of collaborations that may not have otherwise been possible. We thank all of our faculty presenters and participants for their contributions to the brown bag conversations!
