| We offer a cordial invitation to participate in the 11th European Conference on Research Methodology for Business and Management Studies. 2012 brings us to The University of Bolton in Greater Manchester. The University of Bolton was a keystone of the industrial revolution with its inception as The Mechanics Institute in 1826, to serve the educational needs of employers and their workers in the northern industrial towns. Higher level courses were transferred to the new Bolton Institute of Technology in 1966. The Institute was awarded university title in 2005, becoming the University of Bolton. The focus of this conference is to share current thinking, practice and innovation around research methodology, in the company of friends and in a congenial atmosphere.
