Research Projects for Business & Management Students

This second edition of Research Projects for Business and Management Students provides students undertaking extended research with a foundation upon which to build their practice. The author sets out each stage of a research project systematically to allow you to follow along and build an understanding of the processes involved in carrying out in depth pieces of research, as well as the functions of commonly used research methods. Conversation boxes throughout will also help situate your learning by providing examples of commonly asked questions, challenges that may occur while you carry out your research and guidance on how to answer them.
