Research Events

We host a variety of research events and seminars throughout the year. Find out what's coming up and how to attend.

Our seminars and events cover research from each of our subject groups. They tackle topics and challenges from a variety of sectors and perspectives. Regular events include:

  • guest lectures and seminars
  • research presentations
  • conferences

We maintain global partnerships with institutions and businesses. As such, our research events often feature speakers from outside of Newcastle University. They include renowned academics and industry figures from across the globe.

Many of our research events and seminars are internal events. They are open to staff and students from the Business School and the wider University.

We also hold public events which are open to the wider community, including guests from outside the University.
