SBUS41200 Business Research Insights

Academic Year 2018/2019

The MSc IM requires students to complete Business Research Insights project (this is not a requirement for CEMS MIM). This module addresses three primary pillars of the programme: Reflective Critical Thinking, Internationalism and Business Embeddedness. Students engage in a staged issue-focused practice-oriented research with the primary goal of knowledge transfer or bridging between academia and practice. Students identify a business-relevant problem or novel concept in business research, review and synthesise received academic knowledge about the problem/concept, illustrate the problem/concept with real-life example(s), and provide practical guidelines for international management practitioners regarding the problem or the application of the concept.
