Lunchtime Talks

The Department of Criminology welcomes members of the public, staff and students to a series of free Lunchtime Seminars taking.

Guest speakers include academics, authors or experts in criminology or related fields from Australia and overseas. The Criminology Lunchtime Seminar series affords a convenient opportunity to listen to and meet with leaders in this field.

There is no cost to attend and a light sandwich lunch is provided; for catering purposes only we request an RSVP a day or so before each seminar takes place.

Venue is the Criminology Staff Common Room unless otherwise noted. The Criminology Staff Common Room may be found at level 4, 234 Queensberry Street in Carlton (visit our contacts page for details of how to find us.)
