Research course (Business research methods):

This is an innovative course designed as a step-by-step guide on how to write your dissertation. It is based on many years of experience of helping students to successfully complete a research project. Unlike all other courses in the MSc, there is no examination, but the course is assessed through the submission of a 12,000 word dissertation.

Research project (Dissertation):

The dissertation is an excellent opportunity to analyse a business or management issue in depth as an independent research project. The dissertation could be carried out in conjunction with a ‘blue chip’ business or you could use your experience and knowledge to study a topic of relevance to your own professional or national background. You will be assigned a supervisor who will be able to offer advice and suggestions about your chosen filed of inquiry, your methods and analysis. The supervisor will also provide support and encouragement to assist you in completing this challenging and final component of the MSc course.
