Our research strengths are focused in a number of groups or themes. Each of these involves externally funded research, international collaboration and the active involvement of doctoral students. There are opportunities for research students to study in any of the disciplines outlined below.

Researchers in accounting mainly cluster around two main areas: firstly governance and ethics and second, accounting history.

The AGES group (accountability, governance, ethics and sustainability) undertakes research projects unified by the overarching theme of accountability. It has enjoyed recent funding support from a number of external bodies including ACCA, ESRC and EPSRC. It has a strong group of PhD students, including home and international candidates, and a number of strong and active international links.
Specific areas of research expertise include:
• Corporate reporting
• Business ethics
• Corporate philanthropy
• Social and environmental accounting
• Sustainability and social measurement
• Third sector accountability
• Accounting history
