The LSBU Business School provides research degree programs available full-time, part-time, or through distance learning. Throughout this PhD program, candidates collaborate with research supervisors to design projects that influence theory, policy, and practice in accounting and finance. Guided by two supervisors, students undertake empirical or theoretical research to advance knowledge in their chosen field, culminating in a series of journal articles or an 80,000-word thesis. Past PhD research has explored topics such as: - Corporate governance disclosures, - Stock market dynamics and inequality, - Behavioral influences on stock returns, - Computational modeling and analysis, - Key factors affecting audit fees in UK FTSE 250 firms
The school prioritizes civic engagement, aiming to translate research findings into real-world societal benefits, as demonstrated by numerous impact case studies. Recognizing the vital role of London's business community, we actively pursue research that examines its structure, economic contributions, and business development cycles to foster local growth.
