Brunel Business School Master of Science MODULE CODE: MG5615 TITLE: Understanding Business and Management Research Methods This assignment comprises two parts: A: A group presentation weighting 40% of the grade of this module B: An individual academic essay weighing 60% of the grade of this module Part A (40%) You will be allocated to a sub-group (normally FIVE/SIX students) within the allocated seminar group to deliver a presentation on “Comparison of Research Methodologies: Qualitative Versus Quantitative Approaches”. Each group will be given 10 minutes for this group presentation. Normally the presentation will contain 10 slides. You will need to explain, compare, evaluate and criticise these two different research approaches to demonstrate thorough understandings of various research methods as a team. The group presentation will be assessed by · Effectiveness of group work · Clear and confident communication skills · Quality, logic and relevance of the content · Tightness of structure (introduction, analysis, argument, and conclusions) · Use and acknowledgement of adequate sources and referencesMG5615 Coursework Assignment 2014-15 MG5615 Understanding Business and Management Research Methods Page 2 of 7 The group presentation will be taken place in Week 26 and will be assessed by your allocated academic tutor for this module.

You are required to write an academic essay to critically analyse and evaluate different research methodological approaches applied in academic journal articles (ABS ranking 3* and above). Typically, your essay should have (a) an executive summary (b) Introduction (c) literature review of research methodologies (d) discussion, analysis and evaluation of different research methodological approaches (e) findings and what you have learnt from this assignment (f) references (Harvard Referencing System). In this assignment, you need to demonstrate an in-depth understanding of different research methodologies including qualitative research methods, quantitative research methods, and a mixture of both. You are expected to use relevant materials from academic research books and academic journal articles (ABS ranking 3* above) in your subject area to support your analysis and arguments when formulating your assignment. Your analysis, discussion and evaluation should be backed with appropriate examples where necessary. This assignment should be presented with 12 pt. Times New Roman Text with line spacing of 1.5.
