Research work forms an important component of each Master and Doctoral degree at SMC University. That means our students graduate being able to consider research within the academic and scholarly arena and are able to apply it to the domain of operating business, a key skill-set to operate effectively in today’s complex world.
Master Program Requirement
At the Master level students are expected to carry out research in an end-of-study project that shows they have mastered the program material and are able to apply it to a business situation in a clear, concise and effective manner as they would be expected to do within a business setting.
Doctoral Program Requirement
At the Doctorate level students are expected to carry out scholarly research of an area or domain by contributing originality to the existing knowledge base and making a substantive contributing to the overall scholarship of their chosen field of study.
