About the School of Business and Management, and the Department of
Business and Society
The School of Business and Management is one of the eight schools in the
Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. The School has been
undergoing a period of rapid growth, almost doubling our number of
academic staff over the last five years and set to grow even further. We
presently have 121 permanent academic staff and a large team of Teaching
Fellows and TAs. We have over 2,000 undergraduate business studies
students and, at the post-graduate level, approximately 1,000 MSc
students and a well-established doctoral programme of around 80 students.
SBM’s core purpose is to promote social justice, sustainability, and
good governance in the management of private, public and voluntary
organisations through our research and education. We are a distinctive
School that takes a humanities and social science-led approach to our
scholarship and are now the largest school within QMUL’s Faculty of
Humanities and Social Sciences, with its traditional strengths as a site
of critical thinking in the humanities, law, history, geography, and
politics.
The Department of Business and Society contributes to SBM through world
leading teaching and research in the areas of global value chains (and
the relationship between the Global North and the Global South),
business ethics, CSR, public management and institutions, social
entrepreneurship, and social innovation (in the local and global
contexts), organization theory, critical management, cultural and
creative industries and business law. Our focus on the relationship
between businesses, society, sustainability, and social justice shapes
the teaching and research environment of the Department of Business and
Society. Department members are typically (but not exclusively)
associated with the Research Centre on Labour, Sustainability and Global
Production, the Public Management and Regulation Group and the
Organisational Processes and Practices Research Group. As such, the
Department examines business as a field of enquiry in its own right – an
area to be subject to critical analysis in the broader context of the
relationship between business and society.
