We like to say that the world needs more Canada. But it is actually going to get more China. A lot more.
Speaker: Sean Geobey
You are somewhere. As much as a university can feel like a bubble – your corner of it even more so – you are part of a bigger world. You are also in a place where the most cutting edge ideas in that world are being developed, though it often feels like those ideas rarely move outside Ring Road. However, that bigger world is a place that needs your ideas and needs different perspectives to help solve its most intractable problems.
INTEG 10 is a seminar on transdisciplinary topics and integrative practices which are of special interest to Knowledge Integration students. This is the "living room" of the program; a place where ideas come together.
We welcome friends and visitors!
