Preface
Most all higher education courses in the Netherlands and abroad require a research project (sometimes also called a thesis or dissertation) in full or partial fulfillment of its qualification.
The Office Management Programme requires you to present an individual research project as a partial fulfillment of its qualification. The process towards developing this individual research project began in your first year of study and continued in subsequent years. Essential skills have been learned in the reading and writing assignment, and the module assignments, and were brought together in the third year of study when you had to undertake a research project as a project team.
I would like you to consider the unique qualities of the final individual research project as being a distinctive marketing tool for your subsequent applications for employment. This assignment is one of the few elements of the course where you can display the full extent of your abilities. It is not unlikely for employers to ask about graduates’ research work and they may wish to inspect a copy of your individual research project. A good individual research project will show your ability to work independently and professionally, and the process
