Make a novel contribution to knowledge, position yourself as an expert in your field, and open a range of doors with future employers – by embarking on a PhD at Loughborough Business School.
You’ll be joining a dynamic community that inspires talented researchers from all over the planet to progress new ideas for businesses and policymakers that are helping to shape a fairer, more sustainable future.
Our doctoral researchers study towards a PhD in business and management, economics or information science, working under the supervision of two or more supervisors. You’ll join one of our academic groups (the one that suits your research interests best), and play an active role in our research centres and research interest groups.
Embarking on a research degree is perhaps the most exciting and demanding phase in any academic career. As the pinnacle of academic qualifications, it marks the transition from being largely taught by others to becoming an independent academic, conducting your own research and developing your own ideas. Our goal is to guide you through that process of becoming a fully fledged PhD graduate, equipped for a wide range of rewarding careers.
Loughborough Business School is a triple-accredited (AACSB, EQUIS, AMBA), leading UK business school. In the 2021 Research Excellence Framework (REF), 86% of our business and management research was rated 'world leading' or 'internationally excellent'.
Our Work and Organisation group focuses on interdisciplinary social science teaching and research that brings together academics interested in people management. Much of the group’s research draws on psychology and sociology as its influences, while other studies have a more historical or geographical focus.
The group conducts research in particular in the areas of organisation studies, work psychology and employment relations. Output ranges from traditional academic scholarship to work that has a significant impact on public policy and management.
