Engaged Scholars' Roundtable

The Engaged Scholars' Roundtable showcases scholarly practice and innovations that honor tenets of Ernest Boyer's concept of the Scholarship of Engagement.

While many of our presenters are university faculty, the series also seeks contributions from staff and community members engaged in scholarly activity that aligns with the values articulated in the Boyer model.

  • Goals

    The Engaged Scholars' Roundtable is intended to:

    • Increase awareness of and engagement with the tenets of engaged scholarship among IUPUI faculty, administrators, and staff;
    • Bring publically disseminated work, developing research, and scholarship to the awareness of local campus and community audiences;
    • Nurture interdisciplinary/transdisciplinary community-campus collaboration and learning;
    • Build capacity for the growth and development of engaged scholarship as a dimension of faculty work;
    • Promote a sense of community among IUPUI's engaged faculty and staff.
  • What to expect

    Roundtable sessions are intended to be informal gatherings, often held over lunch and lasting 1 to 1.5 hours. In most cases, sessions will consist of a short 20-30 minute presentation/demonstration followed by 20-25 minutes of open discussion/dialogue.
