ABOUT US
Research at DCU Business School advances knowledge and professional practice. We focus on strategic and operational challenges facing modern organisations. Building on the deep academic expertise of our people, strong national and international research partnerships, and active industry engagement.
Each of our Research Centres is a leader in its field. Their insights on leadership and innovation, cloud computing and commerce, family business and modelling and simulation are directly relevant to the leaders and managers of today and tomorrow.
THE IRISH INSTITUTE OF DIGITAL BUSINESS
The mission of the research centre is to develop an academic research environment that will foster innovative and high quality multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary research and support the development of both faculty and research. The economic mission of the centre is to transfer research insights and outcomes to DCU’s student body and the national industry base to accelerate the adoption of digital technologies, optimise digital processes, and as a result transform those businesses.
THE DCU NATIONAL CENTRE

A centre of research-driven expertise and advice specific to family businesses in Ireland, but increasingly relevant to international audiences, too. The Centre translates leading Irish and international research into best practice for current family business owners and their successors.
