Aims
To prepare a research project that applies managerial concepts and research techniques to a technology related organisational issue or problem.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Engage in critical reasoning to provide a convincing justification of the importance of the research topic.
2.
Select, synthesise and critically evaluate a wide range of literature relevant to the issue under investigation.
3.
Systematically collect and analyse appropriate data to answer a unique research question or questions.
4.
Utilise critical and system thinking to draw logical conclusions from, and discuss realistic implications and limitations of research findings.
Module Content
Outline Syllabus:Working in conjunction with the supervisor the student will refine the precise topic for research. Building on the preparatory modules, Managing Business Research 1 and Managing Business Research 2, students will develop their critical skills as a researcher.
Workshops and online tutorials include:
organising a project
the ethical approval process
working with a supervisor
writing a critical literature review
collecting and analysing qualitative and quantitative data

Module Overview:
This module helps you to prepare a research project that applies managerial concepts and research techniques to a significant technology-related organisational issue or problem. You will engage in critical reasoning to provide a convincing justification of the importance of your research topic. You will select, synthesise and critically evaluate a wide range of literature and systematically collect and analyse appropriate data. You will utilise critical and system thinking to draw logical conclusions from, and discuss realistic implications and limitations of research findings.

Additional Information:The research project builds on previous learning from Managing Business Research 1 and 2 and from appropriate subject specific modules, with the learning outcomes being achieved through a 16,000 word dissertation that applies managerial concepts and research techniques to critically investigate a technology related organisational issue or problem.
Whilst the student will primarily operate as an independent learner for this in-depth advanced study, support and guidance will be available from the assigned supervisor, online materials and scheduled workshops.
