Research and teaching focus
As a team, we are dedicated to the latest research topics in the field of accounting. In doing so, we teach and research current, environmentally, socially and economically relevant topics such as climate change, greenwashing and biodiversity.
Our purpose
We see ourselves as idea generators in accounting research and teaching with a strong practical orientation and consideration of highly relevant current societal and economic challenges such as climate change whilst being strongly grounded in sound empirical research methods.
