Overview

This course is part of a supervised research project. The project provides opportunities for motivated and highly qualified students to undertake advanced study and independently produce a research-based Thesis – the expected length to be about 65,000 words or equivalent. Students develop appropriate research skills and specialist knowledge which will enhance their career prospects and allow them to undertake further studies.

This is a two-unit course that contributes towards the Doctor of Business Administration Research Thesis.

The Thesis comprises the research and writing of a Thesis. Students examine a professional area of interest, usually related to their work environment and are assisted by one or more supervisors with appropriate background. Each candidate for the research project is required to submit a research proposal to the Head of School. This will go to the Faculty Research and Higher Degrees Committee for approval and endorsement by the Executive Dean and the Office of Research and Research Training prior to the commencement of research. Most topics are drawn from the student's work experience and interest; however it is recognised that the work of some students is not necessarily suited for that purpose and the Head of School and Faculty Research and Higher Degrees Committee then consider topics drawn from elsewhere if necessary. The Thesis will be a significant piece of independently conducted and written research. To successfully complete the Thesis, students will be required to select a research topic, develop a proposal, carry out supervised research on the chosen topic using an appropriate research method, and present and defend the results.
