Science Rendezvous Kingston (SRK) is an annual event hosted by Queen’s Vice-Principal Research Portfolio at the Leon’s Centre. In 2023, we had over 5.3K visitors from Kingston and beyond and 50 interactive booths representing research groups from across Queen’s and local community partners including museums, conservation groups, and secondary schools. Many research groups at Queen’s have been participating in SRK for the past few years and use the event as an opportunity to improve researchers’ and students’ communications and outreach skills. Join this session to learn more about Science Rendezvous and how to join our team of over 430 volunteers to promote your research program.
