What will I learn?

Management, Employment and Organisation is a research area within which you can focus your studies as part of our Business Studies PhD programme.

The Management, Employment and Organisation (MEO) Section is home to a number of research groups and centres and undertakes research in three broad areas:

Organisation Studies
Employment Relations
Public Sector Management

Distinctive features

Teaching opportunities may be available, depending on section requirements. This is reviewed on a year to year basis.
The section runs a seminar series attracting visiting speakers from around the world. We also have regular visiting international academics. These visitors give PhD students regular access to leading academics from around the world.
Several section research projects have made a direct impact on decisions made by private sector organisations, employers' federations, trade union bodies, and government agencies. This impact-led research reflects the strong links that members of the section have with local, national and international employers and regulatory bodies.
