Queen's Management School prides itself on research-led teaching and offers its research students experience as teaching assistants in a variety of undergraduate courses. Aside from gaining close research advice and direction from their supervisors and other academics in the Accounting Group, Accounting research students benefit from attending the Group’s various research seminars, which attract leading academics from around the world. Students also present their work at these events, gaining invaluable advice and preparation for the academic job market. The research strengths of the Accounting Group in Queen’s Management School range from accounting change to accounting education, and from performance measurement to financial accounting, using both quantitative and qualitative research techniques.This research, which has focused particularly on performance reporting, stakeholder engagement and reporting frameworks, has facilitated an enhanced understanding of the not-for-profit sector, including the appropriateness of accounting and reporting practices adopted by not-for-profit organisations. The Accounting Group is keen to work with PhD students interested in undertaking not-for-profit-related research, including research associated with social enterprise organisations.
