The module is an opportunity for you to research a specific area that interests you within an appropriate business, public sector or third sector context.
Your project will make a major contribution to your professional and intellectual development.
Placement students
Many students choose to go on the short work placement module in the final semester where you undertake a project for a client organisation and your dissertation will be based on this area of work.
Non-placement students
If you do not go on placement, you can choose a relevant business or management topic relative to your degree programme and career intentions. Your findings must be generalisable and capable of broad application. You will be supported by a research supervisor throughout the different stages of creating a major piece of research work.
Assessment
You will be assessed by creating an individual report of 10,500 words.
Accreditation
This is a CMI accredited module.
