Knowledge Integration eXhibition 2026

Join us at the 2026 KIX exhibits and senior honours projects posters display during the week of March 16-21.

The students of the Copenhagen cohort in the Knowledge Integration program invite you to experience the culmination of their third-year design project: The Museum Course. After spending ten days in Copenhagen last spring, the students returned to Waterloo in September ready to implement some of the design features they examined on the trip. Working in teams to produce these exhibits has been a rewarding and unique experience for the class.

In building the exhibits, the students moved beyond the traditional projects and assignments typical of an undergraduate experience. The creation process allowed them to be self-directed and enabled the students to incorporate skills from many different disciplines. The result is an exhibition (KIX) that showcases a knowledge of museums and their design and communication methods, as well as teamwork and dedication to something that is a little out-of-the-box.

Visit the exhibits and learn about:

• Connection Lost: Exploring empathy in online spaces
• Alone, Together:Restoring connection in a lonely community

In addition, this year the exhibition includes ten senior honours projects—independent fourth-year research and design outcomes of the fourth year students in the Knowledge Integration program.  Topics range broadly and include designing educational tools to broaden students’ knowledge and skills, enhancing mental health and memory care, strengthening community engagement, expanding animal rights, and much more.

The exhibition is held in the St. Jerome’s Health and Wellness Gym, Seigfried Hall residence, SJU
