The Friday Research Presentations series showcases ongoing academic research projects conducted by faculty, graduate students, and alumni of Illinois Tech’s Stuart School of Business, as well as guest presentations by Illinois Tech colleagues, business professionals, and faculty from other leading business schools.
All Illinois Tech faculty, students, and staff are invited to attend. These in-person presentations are held in Room 470 at the Conviser Law Center, 565 West Adams Street, Chicago.
Every year, research collaborations that begin as presentations in this series go on to produce research papers accepted for publication in leading journals. The series, begun in 2008, sponsors presentations throughout the academic year. Use the page navigation to view lists of Friday Research Presentations in previous academic years.
