Faculty of Business and Law, University of Northampton

The Faculty of Business and Law (FBL) is a large group consisting of over 200 staff. It is divided into nine subject groups which include Accounting and Finance, Business Systems, International Strategy, HRM and Marketing, and Entrepreneurship. Each of these subject groups has several research active staff, ranging from ECRs to experienced and high-profile researchers. Much of the research in the faculty is in the area of sustainability and is captured by our Centre of Sustainable Business Practices. Our other main strand examines collaboration with China and with developing countries, specifically Africa. This work is captured in our Centre for China and Emerging Economies.
