We are one of the largest business schools in the UK with resources to invest to distinguish us as a major international force in global business and management research and education.  NBS research has already seen a step change since our strong performance in REF 2014, confirmed by EQUIS accreditation in 2017.  We now have one of the most vibrant research environments in the UK with three world-leading research centres, and five major research groups and with a number of internationally renowned researchers joining us recently, we aim to further accelerate our research with a major programme of investment.
