Caroline Aubé heads BCI research committee

Caroline Aubé, Professor and Director of Research and Knowledge Transfer at HEC Montréal, has been appointed Chair of the Research Committee of the Bureau de coopération interuniversitaire (BCI) for a 2-year term.

The BCI—a forum for expertise and co-operation—comprises leaders from all the academic institutions in Quebec (e.g.: Vice-Rectors), who meet periodically in separate committees that have been set up to handle major themes or common strategic issues in research, educational, administrative, financial, legal, and regulatory affairs.

Caroline Aubé will provide leadership to the Research Committee by organizing and guiding strategic exchanges on academic research (e.g.: issues related to research funding, knowledge transfer, valorization, security).
