DOC600 Introduction to Doctoral Studies and Research Methods in Business

Module 2 SLP

BUSINESS
RESEARCH PROCESS

To complete
this SLP, review the following material:

Murray, N.
(2008). Writing up your university assignments and research projects: A
practical handbook Open University Press. Chapter 6: What are the different
components of a research project?

Ong, W.,
Lee, D., Ye, A., Wu, C. and Liao, S. (2015). IKEA Case Study. Created with
Wix.com http://wjong7.wixsite.com/ikeacasestudies

Chapter 6
of Murray (2008) book provides a description of what a research project should
look like with a list of each of the components. This structure is very similar
to the structure of the Doctoral Study Project required at the end of this
program. For this exercise, review this chapter as an illustration.

Next,
review the IKEA case study presented in a website (not a paper) with a nice
description of the organizational case study.

After
reading the required background material and finding at least two other
resources on your own, write a 3-4 page paper (without counting the cover page
and the page with references) discussing the topic:

Compare and
contrast business report and academic research project writing

In your
paper, you should answer the following questions using your own evaluation and
critical thinking.

How can the
IKEA Case Study become an academic research project report?

What did
you like/dislike from the IKEA Case Study?

What are
the pros and cons of using the traditional academic research project structure?
