Trinity Business School at Trinity College Dublin is located on College Green, in Dublin's city centre. The School is ranked 1st in Ireland and 16th in Western Europe in the Eduniversal Dean's Rankings, 2015.[1] Trinity Business School offers a wide range of programmes at undergraduate, postgraduate and MBA levels.
Originating as a School of Commerce, which was established in 1925 to offer B.A. and B.Comm. degrees in Trinity College, the School was transformed into a School of Business Studies in the 1960s. It is located in the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences of Trinity College.[2] Established in 1964, its MBA is one of the three original MBA programmes in Europe. In 1976, the M.Sc. (Mgmt) degree in Management Practice for practising senior executives was launched, with a curriculum based on action research principles.
In 2015 Trinity Business School embarked on a high growth strategy that will more than double the size of the School and includes the development of new and existing programmes, as well as the construction of a cutting-edge building for the School (that will incorporate an Innovation and Entrepreneurship hub). The new business complex will open up onto Pearse Street on one side, helping to reinvigorate that street, and overlook the iconic Trinity rugby field on the other. The project is expected to be completed by early 2019. In the meantime, Trinity Business School is located on two sites, one at Aras an Phairsaigh, within the main Trinity campus and another at 152-160 Pearse Street, Dublin 2. In 2015 and 2016 it began rolling out a series of pre-experience masters and advanced diploma programs in support of this growth plan

Current Research
School members research in a number of fields :
Business and Economic History
- What can we learn from the experience of enterprises and economies of the past that will guide us today? Does history rhyme or does it repeat? Are the present business conditions and environments inevitable outcomes of historical factors or are they breaks with the past – is this time truly different?
Entrepreneurship and work
- What is the future of work? Will the phenomenon of freelancing continue or is it a function of the recent crises? What sort of characteristics aid and what hinder start-ups? To what extent can profit and not-for-profit organizations learn from each other? What are the challenges of managing and leveraging international and specialist workers ? How do we foster entrepreneurship at organizational, local, regional and national level
International Business
- How does doing business differ when we look across borders? Can firms be “born global” or must they become global? How would we measure multinationality in corporations? How can firms take advantage, or even create new markets?
International Finance and Accounting
- What is financial contagion and how does it spread? Does investing in multinational firms convey more advantages than investing across national indices? To what extent does financial integration represent a one-way process? What is the relationship between corporate statements and financial reality? What role do alternative investments have in financial planning?
Manufacturing, Innovation and Systems
- How can we configure manufacturing and service systems to best serve complex societal needs? What is and what is not innovation and how can we foster a climate supportive of it? To what extend can we treat non-profit organizations as network systems? What are the boundaries of firms and organizations when we see them as networks?
Marketing and Consumers
- What do consumers want or do they know? Where does marketing management responsibility end and consumer responsibility begin? How can we best use digital means to connect with diverse consumer populations?
People and Organisations
- How do companies optimally configure themselves? What is the role of justice and learning within organizations? How can organisations create and promote healthy and enjoyable working environments for employees? How can managers encourage proactive behaviour within their teams?
Strategy and Change
- What is business strategy? How does it evolve under change and how does it drive change? To what extent can we see a linkage between organisational and strategic change pressures? Is there an optimal strategy or is it contingent? What is the role of supply chains in formulating and fostering business strategy
The Centre for Nonprofit Management (CNM) and the Initiative on Social Entrepreneurship focuses on research which examines the unique facets of organisations traditionally positioned between the public and private sectors, commonly known as the third sector. In 2006 the CNM carried out the largest ever mapping study of the nonprofit landscape in Ireland, and currently acts as a unique and extensive repository of research study and data relating to the nonprofit sector nationally.
