WSU School of Business Research Report
I am pleased to present the School of Business Research Report for 2021. Despite the past two years of uncertainty, we have made significant strides in expanding our research collaborations, improving the quality of our research publications, and increasing our research income. The
wide-ranging research detailed in this report speaks to our extensive expertise and capacity to work productively with our various research partners.
The year 2021 was indeed a year like no other, with challenges we could not have foreseen. This report shares many research activities and successes achieved during these difficult times. I want to congratulate and thank all staff for their dedication and commitment to support the University and its mission. I’d also like to especially congratulate those who have put their hand up to present in our fortnightly seminar series and during Research Week.
