Faculty
At WBS we mix academic theory and practice to truly develop you both professionally and personally to unleash your inner Change Maker.
Our faculty support our students in understanding how the latest business theories can be applied in real-life business scenarios. Striving for excellence in everything they do, from producing the latest ground-breaking research, to inspiring our students, their constant curiosity to find a better way has led to recognition and awards for many of our faculty.
Our Professors of Practice offer a wealth of knowledge, they are industry experts who can back up theory with their practical insights and experience. Here are some of the academics you may study with depending on your chosen modules:
