Aims
To afford students the opportunity of undertaking a significant piece of independent
research which applies appropriate business management and academic research
concepts to investigate, explain, resolve or enhance understanding of a significant
organisational issue or problem.
Module Content
Outline Syllabus:Structured research with supervisor guidance.
Research project topics will be identified by students in the Research
Methods for Managers module and then refined with supervisor guidance.
Alternative research project topics can be selected with explicit approval of students'
supervisor.
Additional Information:Although appropriate academic support will be provided by supervisors, students are
expected to engage in in-depth critical thinking and independent learning. The ability
to engage in reflective learning is also an expectation and students will be expected
to include a 1,000 word appendix (included in the word limit) documenting their
reflections on the research project, its execution, methodological issues, planning,
etc. and the learning gained therein.
Further details of the assessment expectations (particularly within each category of
research project) will be documented in the module handbook.
