The dissertation in Year Four is primarily concerned with developing a theoretical explanation or understanding of a broad human resource management issue. It is intended to demonstrate the researcher’s grasp of the subject or discipline and to provide a basic level of training and practice in systematic investigation. It also demonstrates the researcher’s ability to critically evaluate, analyse and manage information and data and to communicate issues and outcomes. The dissertation challenges the student to apply concepts, theories and analytical techniques gained throughout the degree course.
Students are supported in their dissertation journey by their Business Research Methods module. Students are also guided by their allocated supervisor who they meet regularly throughout the process. Classes are delivered in workshops and also in a computer lab.
