THE DISSERTATION
Building on the Research Methods module, students will produce an independent research project of approximately 10,000 -15,000 words in length. It is an intellectually challenging piece of individual management research which provides students with the opportunity to explore and produce an in-depth management study of particular interest to them. Students are required to: Critically evaluate major schools of thought within relevant management theory Discriminate between research methods in order to make appropriate selections in conducting management and organisational research Translate theory into practice through the study of its application in the real world and undertake empirical research in this area Draw conclusions about the implications of the results for managerial decision-making Despite being an independent research project, students are supported throughout the whole process by the team of dedicated Cardiff School of Management Supervisors. All students will be assigned a Personal Tutor who will provide regular feedback and advice on the students progress.
