General Information

Overview

This unit is the second and final stage of your final year research project which builds upon the successful completion of Research Project 1 (PPMP20019). In this unit, you will complete the investigative study you planned for in 'Research Project 1'. You will collect and analyse secondary or primary data and discuss the findings of your study. Then, you will draw conclusions and report the research findings via an industry-relevant academic report as well as an oral presentation. You will also be required to apply project management principles throughout the execution of your research project. The unit is designed to help you develop essential problem-solving and research skills for conducting independent research projects including the ethical issues involved.

Feedback from SUTE unit comments report

Feedback

More interactive and practical learning opportunities would have greatly enhanced the learning experience in this unit.

Recommendation

While practical elements are beneficial, the primary aim of this unit is to develop research skills and in-depth knowledge in a specific area, which often requires a different approach than hands-on activities. However, possible ways should be further explored to integrate more engaging elements within the constraints of the unit.
