Dr Sharon Loane. Department of International Business. Department of International Business. International Business. Research Activities. Business and Management Research Institute. The research strength of the Institute focuses on three key areas: Operations Management, Marketing and Corporate Governance with a strong cross-cutting theme supporting the SME regional economy. It is anticipated that the BMRI will build on this reputation in terms of developing collaborative linkages both nationally and internationally given its close relationships with the British Academy of Management, Academy of Marketing, Academy of International Business and a range of professional bodies, such as, CIMA, ACCA and ICSA. All of this underpins the externally assessed high quality teaching ratings of the Ulster Business School and places the Faculty in pole position to further develop its management education and leadership role in supporting the Northern Ireland economy.
