Faculty of Commerce and Administration

Research

The Faculty of Commerce and Administration at Victoria University of Wellington encompasses over 200 academics carrying out research on a wide range of subjects.  This research is published in some of the world’s best academic journals and books and feeds into the teaching of the Faculty at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

Research conducted by our staff contributes to more effective government policy and better business practice throughout New Zealand.

Student theses are also a major component of the Faculty’s research activity. We have approximately 100 PhD students and many more Master's students at any one time working on a wide variety of topics.

Much of this research is enhanced by grants and sponsorship which increases its value to the sponsoring organisation.
