Research - Business
Seminars
The aim of our Business and Management Research Seminar Series is to support the overall research objectives of the School of Business and Economics.
The primary focus is on exploring conceptualisation and research methodology issues, rather than simply the results of any research. Research presentations will be given by experienced and active researchers within the School, as well as by invited researchers.
The research seminars support the activities of the various Business and Management Research Groups within the School and also the Doctoral training programme. Normally four research seminars are held each semester by external speakers or active researchers from the School.
All seminars will be held in room BE.0.53 in the Sir Richard Morris Building between 1.00 pm and 2.00 pm, unless otherwise stated. A light buffet will be provided.
