The IB recognizes the central role of research in supporting:
- the development of the IB programmes as well as professional development activities
- the strengthening of our role as a promoter of international education.
As a researcher, you will find that research is carried out across the whole organization. Research support systems and services are currently being developed.
The International Baccalaureate Research Team
The International Baccalaureate Research Team was established in May 2000 to develop and support research into the IB programmes and international education. The research team takes part in research projects, collaborates with universities and international agencies, and disseminates research findings in international publications. The unit develops links with researchers into international education worldwide, and supports research through the international education research database, the production of IB Research Notes and a dedicated section on the IB website.
Research across the IB
We promote an institutional culture that uses the valid and reliable outcomes of research to inform and develop the whole organization. Research is currently carried out within each of the IB programmes:
