Research in management science has developed long-standing areas of expertise in banking and credit, as well as supply chain management and logistics. However more recently this has extended into new areas of contemporary global relevance, such as disaster and aid logistics and major assets infrastructure.
Innovation has led to a number of funded research projects, such EPSRC-funded research looking at machine-learning explainability.
We also work closely with industry, such as partnerships with Costain on major construction projects asset design and operations under uncertainty, and with Volvo on carbon lifecycle analysis.
The research has increasingly included a focus on improving inclusion, such as exposing indirect gender bias in scoring models, extending scoring methods to help those previously unable to gain credit, and devising alternative measures if applicants have no credit history and cannot be scored using conventional methods.
Recent projects have responded to the Covid-19 crisis and focused on Scotland’s economic recovery, especially for vulnerable groups or industries.
