The School of Business and Governance is very pleased and honored to announce the winners of the School's Award for the best Research Article of the year 2022.
The selection process was, as always, a truly challenging one. According to the Principles of acknowledgement in the School of Business and Governance, the prize is awarded for the 1.1 classification articles published during the previous calendar year, have been included in ETIS and have not been rewarded by the School or the University in last two years. As a rule, when giving the award the author has to hold at least 0.75 of workload in the School (the workload may be lower in case of PhD students). However this time, an exception to the general principles of the School was made for the authors of two articles published in the FT50+ journals. A separate prize is awarded for an article published in a high-impact journal related to the field of ethics, responsibility or sustainability.
Our researchers have been productive and worked on a wide range of topics reflecting the processes in society and the economy. Our research articles have been published in various prestigious journals and publications. Thank you all for your excellent work!
