The Corry Colloquium Speaker Series features contributors from Queen's and beyond covering topics across all the fields of political studies. Since a Department of Political Studies speaker series was introduced in 2009, we have enjoyed high attendance from faculty and students alike. For students, the series is a great opportunity for exposure to original research and to take part in and become familiar with the practice of scholarly debate in the discipline of political studies.
Corry Colloquium speakers for the upcoming year will be posted on the upcoming events page as they become available. Please check there for detailed event information, and see the events archive to view past events.
