Research

One of the major functions of any Higher Education Institution is the development and transmission of knowledge and skills through research. Pursuant to this statement, IBS enables its staff and students to make full use of its resources to create a “research culture” consistent with its mission and aspirations.

With the quality of teaching and learning experience lying at the heart of IBS’s ethos, academic research is seen as a crucial success factor in providing

•     sound theoretical foundations for all teaching,
•     opportunity for faculty to continuously develop their knowledge and competencies,
•     international visibility that enhances the recruitment of committed students and high-quality faculty and staff.

In this respect, IBS will always seek ways to improve

•     the quality of its research,
•     the impact of its research, as well as
•     the volume of its research.

Beyond encouraging and providing support to individual research activities of all of its staff members, IBS has now set up seven research teams, which receive additional funding and backing from the institution.

The following table provides a summary of the approved and supported research priorities and teams at IBS-B.

Expected outcomes

In all, it is expected that 40 high-quality publications will be produced during the period of January 2012 and July 2014 by the above research teams, including articles in refereed journals in Hungary, Austria and abroad, interim research reports published as Working Papers, and papers presented at international conferences and workshops.
