University of Oxford Saïd Business School
The Saïd Business School is one of Europe’s youngest and most entrepreneurial business schools. An integral part of the University of Oxford, the School embodies the academic rigour and forward thinking that has made Oxford a world leader in education. The School is dedicated to developing a new generation of business leaders and entrepreneurs and conducting research not only into the nature of business, but the connections between business and the wider world. An interdisciplinary approach The Saïd Business School is fully integrated into one of the world’s greatest universities. This allows us to draw on Oxford’s strengths across a range of subjects, including sociology, economics, law, psychology, politics and international relations. Working at the interface of disciplines, faculty and researchers are mining rich new insights into issues such as the politics of global business, the rise of science entrepreneurship, the management of innovation, and the social and commercial impact of information systems and the internet. By collaborating actively with faculty from other disciplines, we are aiming to transcend the traditional functional divisions of a business school in order to reflect the complex realities of business and society in today’s global economy. Focus on the future The Saïd Business School plays a dynamic role in setting the future agenda in the business arena. Our faculty are all at the forefront of their fields and provide intellectual leadership for institutions such as the European Commission, the European Corporate Governance Institute and the World Bank. They are committed to helping organisations stay ahead, whether by furthering our understanding of the Chinese marketplace, or by identifying the strategic demands of high-tech companies.
