Individual Study Plan
Practitioner Based Project/Dissertation:
The primary step for prospective scholars is drafting their research proposal. This proposal can be an 8-10 page document that consists of essential factors of the DCS program. Our pre-defined template will facilitate an easier and quicker process of documentation. Students are advised to keep their initial research proposal ready within the first month of enrolment and submit it. You will receive feedback and guidance on your Research proposal from your designated supervisor or Research Faculty. The template for your preliminary research proposal can befound here.
One can consider the following points while selecting his/her topic for the research project.
-
In-depth research on a single subject assessing a novel or inventive intervention, technical answers, etc.
-
An evaluation of a program and an action research or participatory action research study
-
A field investigation that looks at theoretical conceptions;
-
A survey study looking at beliefs, attitudes, or behaviors within a subject matter or discipline
-
As an enhancement to a business process.
As the pointers reflect, the doctoral degree program requires extensive knowledge of the literature about the particular subject areas and sophistication of how a project is developed and presented. These projects enhance students' experience and equip them to develop expertise in their specialization and prepare them to be competent practitioner-scholars. To achieve this goal, students are recommended to pursue a topic in which they already have extensive practical experience.
