Assignment 3
MGMT255 - GLOBAL POPULATION CHALLENGES
Individual Research Report
(Due Date: Week 9 – Thursday 11 May 2017)
Overview
The research report is an individual work. In this report each student have to write up the
major findings from your research on a significant contemporary global population challenges
as covered in the unit. You have to select a research topic by Week 6 (Thursday, 6 April 2017).
If you want to have an alternative topic, which is not covered in the class, please discuss or
consult it first with your tutor/lecturer.
Structure
Your research report should contain common elements and generally follow the basic format
outlined as follows:
a. Title. It should be brief, topic-specific and informative, clearly indicating the purpose and
scope of your project.
b. Abstract. It should be brief summary (around 200 to 500 words), written in a single
paragraph and should cover the scope and purpose of your project report.
c. Introduction. It sets the context for your research that should supply sufficient background
to understand and evaluate the project topic without needing to refer to previous
publications. Introductions generally include:
- The rationale for the present study. Why are you interested in this topic? Why is this
topic worth investigating?
- Key terms and definitions (if necessary)
- An outline of questions or hypotheses addressed in the report.
d. Literature Review. It should overview the current state of research topic and to situate
your project within that research. It should answer key questions about the literature, such
as:
- What is the current state of knowledge on the topic?
- Where are the strengths and weaknesses of the research project?
- What further research is needed (if necessary)?
e. Methodology (Data and Methods, if necessary). The purpose of this section is to detail
how you conducted your research. You need to briefly describe the data (if applied), any
sources or materials used and the approach taken.
f. Results and Discussions. Result and discussion can be separated, or it can also be presented
in one section. The result should outline your findings in a consistent manner and in terms of
tabular or graphic summary. Any analysis of your results occurs in the discussion section. The
discussion should describe one of some of the following points:
- To what extent was each question/hypothesis supported?
- To what extent are your findings validated or supported by other research?
- Were there unexpected variables that affected your results?
- On reflection, was your research method appropriate (if necessary)?
- Did you find for any differences between your results and other studies?
g. Conclusion. The conclusion is generally fairly short and should follow on naturally from key
points raised in the discussion.
h. Reference. It contains all the resources you have cited in your report. It is important to
follow preferred format, style of references and presentation requirements of the report. In
this case, references can follow the citation method from MLA, Chicago, or APA style.
Note:
- The report should range from between 2500-3000 words in length (not including
references)
- References should only be taken from academic and recognized resources (e.g. books,
peer reviewed journals, national/international newspapers, formal websites).
