Research

At Brighton Business School we are committed to intellectual excellence through research, and our research activity is at the centre of all that we do.

Cutting-edge, high quality research

According to the Research Assessment Exercise (2008):

  • 70% of our business and management research is of international standing or higher
  • 20% of our business and management research received the top 4-star rating
  • This places us in the top 15 UK Business Schools (based on the proportion of our research output classed as world-leading research)

A testimony to the quality of our research is also in the national and international business and management conferences we host.

Addressing real-world issues

We have excellent working relationships with the wider research community and we work closely with external institutions and commercial businesses, translating our research into practice. As well as making a meaningful contribution to business and management practices, our research ensures our courses are up-to-date, interesting and relevant.

A supportive research community

We have over 70 research-active staff and an established development programme to support both experienced and new researchers.

As one of our students, you will benefit from our cutting-edge research that forms the basis of all of our teaching. Find out about research study opportunities
