课程简介
Providing an evidence-based critique of the role of accounting in society, and formulating insightful contributions to resolve problems of accountability and control. We aim to provide an evidence-based critique of the role of accounting in society, and suggest insightful contributions to resolving problems of accountability and control in these contexts. Addressing real-world problems and providing data-backed insights means our research is used by organisations, policymakers and stakeholders to make a positive impact on society and our communities. The Accounting Department has a well-established reputation of research in three key areas: auditing and governance accountability and sustainability accounting education and pedagogy. Our approach to research is highly collaborative across the department as well as with other disciplines and schools, involving partnerships with businesses at a local, national and global level along with academic institutions in the UK and across the globe. We aim to develop knowledge that directly informs our teaching and makes a sustainable difference to people, organizations and society. This means we engage with policy makers, organisations and societies within the West Midlands and beyond. We want our research to be sustainable and recognised in its many dimensions. This includes developing and delivering research projects guided by a diverse range of research interests, leading externally funded projects, organising international conferences and events, and supervising successful doctorate research. Our research takes a variety of forms including case studies, surveys, qualitative (interpretive, critical) and historical methods, experimental and analytical methods. This allows us to analyse the often intricate and unexpected issues that arise when accounting and financial information, tools, instruments and/or practices (in the broadest sense) are implemented and/or enacted in organisations.<br><br>We have an exciting and vibrant research environment at Aston Business School that enables our PhD students to be engaged in various research events and seminars (Aston Business School-wide and PhD-specific). Our PhDs have a dedicated research society which organises various social and academic related events throughout the year, including the ABS Annual Doctoral Conference. We strongly believe that these activities are an essential part of ensuring our PhD students are engaged and motivated throughout the duration of their PhD journey. Our academic departments also run research seminar series (and other activities) where PhD students are encouraged to present their research and get feedback from colleagues. In addition, our Summer School in Advanced Research Methods offers additional training opportunities necessary for a successful academic career.
