Research subject Accounting

The research in accounting investigates and analyzes operations, control and reporting from public organizations and private companies. We use both qualitative and quantitative methods to investigate, among other things, how management and reporting practices develop, unfold and interact.

Our research is mainly based on empirical field studies and a central question in our research relates to how these practices can be understood from a societal perspective. We therefore use theoretical arguments from our own as well as from other subjects to understand and the role of governance and reporting for individuals, organizations and society.
