Assessment task three requires the preparation of a full project proposal that should not exceed 3000 words excluding the cover page, table of contents (if included) and reference list.

Students need to address the following:

Refined Problem Statement, Aim, Objectives and Scope - students need to provide a detailed statement of the problem you would like to investigate as well as aim and objectives of the project within the scope of the study.

Research Project Justification - students need to explain why your chosen project is important both theoretically and practically?

The Conceptual Framework - students need to provide a review of literature relevant to the research project that leads to the development of a conceptual framework to investigate the research problem.

Methodology - based on the conceptual framework, research aim and research objectives, students need to provide a detailed description of the data collection methods, tools and data sources that will be used to analyse the data.

This is an individual research task. Students are required to demonstrate their understanding of the relevant body of work in a real-life business research context. We expect students to read and reflect on, and use in-text at least twenty recent refereed journal articles on their topics, supported by any other evidence or information that can help refine the problem of your research, formulate a conceptual framework and develop the methods for data collection and analyses.

You should link all evidence or information that can help identify the problem of your research and the methods of data collection and analysis with appropriate in-text references that you have read. False referencing (i.e. referencing that is clearly not linked to the information presented) will lead to a reduction of marks and further analysis for evidence of academic misconduct.
