The scientific, research, and professional work at the school is formalised within the Business Institute in the context of the registered group of researchers and a narrower research group. The Business Institute was established so as to bring together theory and practice, as modern higher education studies require a close connection to practice and have to be supported by research work.
DOBA University of Applied Sciences has been publishing the e-Journal of Innovative Business and Management since 2010. The journal presents original ideas, experience, and findings of national and international experts, theorists and practising experts while also offering diverse views on the challenges of the modern society. The editor-in-chief is dr Rasto Ovin, the school’s dean.
Every year, we organise topical scientific or professional conference, symposia and round table debates for our students and the broader public, hosting prominent experts and scientists from Slovenia and abroad.
Undergraduate and postgraduate students are included in scientific and research work in the context of studies prepared by academics and in the context of research topics offered by the school. Under the supervision of academics, students join the work of the research group of also with their master’s theses.
Cooperation with companies
To a large extent, the inclusion of students in the research and professional work at DOBA Business School encompasses projects for the economy or the students’ work environment. The students also prepare applicative and research projects in companies in which they are employed and in other organisations.
