課程概述 |
This course evolves out of the recognition that GMBA students have a growing need for guidance on practical Thesis Writing.
This course focuses on developing core academic writing skills through analysing examples and course lectures. Specifically, students are introduced to the structure of thesis writing and the needed academic writing tools. In addition, students are introduced to a sect of qualitative and quantitative data collection tools and are shown how to interpret the findings.
In short, students are walked through the process of Thesis Writing and armed with a core set of how to do so. |
|
課程目標 |
After completing this course, students will be able:
• Collect and Introduce Literature in a critical discourse
• Understand relevant tools to be used for secondary and primary data analysis
• Read and Write about Data in a Results section
• Improve their Academic Writing Skills
These goals are achieved through lectures and applied activities. |
