Research Project I

Course Description

Research Project I is a Directed Reading/Study course in the Executive DBA program. Research Project I is part of a series of research projects. The objective is to develop a draft research paper proposal that demonstrates progress in the student's research capabilities and provides a foundation for the student's dissertation research. The series of research projects focus on applying the concepts, theories and methods learned in the foundation and methods courses. The research projects provide students with a mentored, structured approach to developing the critical skills required to prepare their dissertation proposal and the dissertation. Students will engage in research under the supervision of an Executive DBA faculty member. At the end of the term, the research project will be reviewed and assessed according to DBA program standards for quality, relevance, and potential impact. During the term, students may be expected to present their work and provide feedback on the work of others in the program. This course is typically offered in the summer after the first year but may also be offered in other terms.
