Research Colloquium

CICMHE sponsors the International Material Handling Research Colloquium (IMHRC) to bring together academic and industrial participants to discuss the latest in material handling, facility layout and design, logistics and supply chain research. The Colloquium is held every two years in the summer of even-numbered years. The first IMHRC was held in 1990.

The research issues presented and discussed at each Colloquium are documented in a hard-bound edited book, entitled Progress in Material Handling Research. Past volumes are available through the MHIA literature catalog. Tables of contents and abstracts from each of the colloquia are available through the "Past Colloquia" link above.
