Innovation and Enterprise MRes

The School of Business and Management is a member of the King's College London/Imperial College London/Queen Mary ESRC Doctoral Training Partnership, which offers high quality training to doctoral students as well as +3 and 1+3 studentships.

This 12-month MRes combines core taught research methods modules with optional subject-based modules, and submission of a thesis.

On this programme you will examine:

• The role of business innovation, creativity and knowledge management within organisations.
• The development and operation of markets for resources, goods and services.
• The influence of economic, ethical, legal, political, sociological and technological factors upon the strategy, behaviour, management and sustainability of organisations.
• Effective management and development of people within organisations.
• The diverse processes, purposes, structures, and governance within organisations.

You'll also have the opportunity to acquire methodologies and techniques for undertaking, analysing and writing up academic research, and carrying out applied or practitioner research in the areas of business and management.

You will expand your professional network by interacting with students from King’s College London and Imperial College, as part of the training offered by the London Interdisciplinary Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership (LISS-DTP).

This programme is well-suited to students wishing to pursue an academic career in business and management research. It would also suit those seeking to undertake, commission or manage research in the commercial, public, or voluntary sectors.

This programme is an approved pathway for ESRC funding, which could cover the costs of your MRes and a PhD, should you wish to pursue doctoral study.
