 Major Research Areas
NUS Business School is not just a centre for teaching excellence. It is also where our faculty and students demonstrate their skills and expertise in conducting research in the increasingly sophisticated field of business studies.
The School now has more than 160 faculty members, with the majority of them holding doctoral degrees from the best business schools in the world. Besides teaching excellence, they bring to the School an optimal mix of rigorous research standards and capabilities. They also have extensive consultancy and work experience with both public and private sector organizations.
Our faculty members are also prolific authors of research papers published in leading academic journals of their respective fields. The School publishes the Asian Case Research Journal, on top of active contributions by its staff in leading international academic journals.
Besides journals, many of our faculty members are authors of textbooks and monographs, in a whole variety of topics, including entrepreneurship, marketing, law, economics and workplace organization. As a sign of the versatility and diversity of our faculty, not all the titles are in English. There are also publications in Chinese, French and German.
To further enhance the quality and variety of our faculty, the School also engages the service of many adjunct faculty members, who are almost always senior leading industry practitioners keen to share and impart their real life experience to the School.
The five academic departments of the School are also active in organising regular seminars and conferences. In this way, there are regular platforms for the presentation and exchange of views, ideas and new findings.
To meet specialized requirements in certain fields, the School is also host to three research centres- the Centre for E-Business, Corporate Governance and Financial Reporting Centre and Saw Centre for Financial Studies.
