The research in projects and organisations module provides a comprehensive understanding of the principles and practices of research in the context of projects and organisations. The module covers key concepts and methodologies for conducting research in real-world settings, including data collection, analysis, and interpretation. Students will learn how to design and conduct research projects, and how to apply research findings to improve organisational processes and outcomes. The module also provides exposure to various research methods, including qualitative and quantitative approaches, as well as critical evaluation of research design and results. In this module, students will learn how to search for and critically analyse literature – both academic and professional and make use of it accordingly. Students will be given the opportunity to prepare a thesis highlighting the learning accumulated over the period of their chosen Masters program. The research component is designed for students to develop conceptual, methodological and analytical skills. By the end of the course, students will have developed the skills necessary to conduct independent research projects and contribute to the advancement of knowledge in their field.
