Research
Warwick Business School is recognised as one of the leading research institutions in business and management. The 2008 Research Assessment Exercise positions Warwick 5th in the UK in business and management.
As of 2006, the WBS academic faculty consisted of 113 teaching staff, 60 researchers, and 15 visiting academics. All academics are members of a teaching subject group, a research centre or unit, and often of both. Each teaching subject group has a group convenor or head, and devolved group management. Each research centre has a director, and has similarly devolved management. Research centres may have a board with external representation to ensure practical relevance of research strategy. There are also two institutes which act as umbrella groups for a range of subject-specific research activities:
- Institute of Governance & Public Management
- Warwick Finance Research Institute

Famous quotes containing the word research:
“After all, the ultimate goal of all research is not objectivity, but truth.”
—Helene Deutsch (1884–1982)
“The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is “What does a woman want?””
—Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
“The working woman may be quick to see any problems with children as her fault because she isn’t as available to them. However, the fact that she is employed is rarely central to the conflict. And overall, studies show, being employed doesn’t have negative effects on children; carefully done research consistently makes this clear.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
