Lorna is an Honorary Senior Lecturer in the Accounting & Finance Division. Lorna joined the School in August 2000 having trained as a chartered accountant with ICAS, worked in systems development in the financial services industry and held a lecturing position at the University of Abertay.
Lorna's research is informed by her professional practice and education experiences, and driven by a desire to understand why people and organisations do what they do, and how they understand their worlds, particularly in the context of prevailing economic views and environmental degradation. Thus work in education with undergraduate and professional students seeks to explore student motivations, their prior learning experiences, and how they see their world. Lorna is currently involved in a comprehensive study of the rationale for the Anglo-American model of shareholder privacy in UK company law.
