Research Areas/Interests of the Business Faculty

The business faculty are active scholars with a broad range of research interests. We welcome applications from students whose research interests fall within any of our faculty’s research interests. Faculty play an active role in a doctoral fellow’s research project through regular supervision both in person on the CEU campus and virtually. This includes opportunities for doctoral fellows to participate in joint publication activities with our faculty. Finding a match between the interests of students and faculty is of the utmost importance.
