Leeds University Business School highlights several key research topics across its six departments where PhD applications are especially encouraged. While these research areas don't come with dedicated funding, they can be included in scholarship proposals. For scholarship opportunities, refer to our fees and scholarships section. Alongside the listed research themes, applicants may propose their own topics, provided they clearly align with the Business School's academic focus.

We maintain a dynamic academic environment that blends teaching and research. Our work spans four primary themes, emphasizing applied and empirical approaches, with support from three specialized centers: the Centre for Advanced Studies in Finance (CASIF), Credit Management Research Centre (CMRC), and International Banking Institute (IBI).
