Research Project Task  

Students need to choose a topic of their choice to research within the field of business studies or practice. By QAA M Level descriptors, studying at the master’s Level at Bloomsbury  Institute London requires you to shift emphasis from a passive to an active learner; from relying on judgments of others to forming your judgment, and from utilising the research of others to undertaking your research. In determining which topics to deal with in the Final Project, you will be  required to: 

a. Exercise judgment in considering the feasibility of a subject area 

b. Determine the usefulness to your study 

c. Consider the overall relevance to the area of Business Management that you want to major in 

d. Justify its importance as an area of study 

e. Import a substantial range of current research and scholastic activity. 

The purpose of this assignment is to bring together key areas of interest in the student’s chosen specialist area into one coherent assignment. It is the culmination of the student’s studies on the programme. 

In line with the validated programme specification, students will be allocated a supervisor and a total of seven hours of contact time spread of the semester. You will be expected to keep in touch with your supervisor throughout the period. At this level, supervisors will have their preferred way of managing the supervisory process. It is expected that the two parties agree to the working relationship at the beginning of the process, and an agreement on the relationship is confirmed. The word count is 10,000  words (+- 10%)
