BE425 Research Plan
BE425 Research Plan
Identify ONE case study (example of an organization, programme, event) that
you might research to help you collect and analyse data to answer your
question and address your objective(s). Explain why you will use this case? What
type of data would you collect and potentially analyse? Briefly state some practical
limitations and ethical concerns that you may encounter. You should aim to write
around 500 words in this section.
Please note: You do not need to actually do the case-study analysis. Just select a
case that you might analyse, and explain your choice. State what would you study
and why. Your selection and rationale are what you will be marked on in this section
of the assignment.
Tip: This should be a ‘real’ organization, not a fictitious one. It does not have to be a
business; it might be an NGO, government agency or political party. There are many
ways of identifying a good case-study organization. You can use the academic
literature that you have reviewed, search through the mainstream media, the
business press, or google for ideas. You could look at examples that have been in
the news recently, because of particular issues or initiatives. You could examine lists
of organizations such as the Times Top 100 Employers.
