The Walker College of Business Office of Graduate Programs and Research will host two Dean's Club Lunch and Learn events during the Spring 2023 semester.
The events are aimed at business faculty at Appalachian State University, but are open to Appalachian State University community members. They will provide a forum to increase awareness among faculty about the type of research that is going on in departments across the Walker College of Business and create opportunities for interdisciplinary research.

Attendees will learn about interesting methodologies, theories and research approaches and form future collaborations.
