This course is a continuation of Thesis Seminar I. This course is designed to acquaint students with the theoretical and quantitative skills and knowledge needed to develop and address a research problem. The students will develop critical core competencies and skills needed to carry out enquiries, such as identifying research gaps, defining research questions and objectives, reviewing existing literature, outlining hypotheses, designing research methods that incorporate secondary and primary data collection techniques, sampling and analysis methods, and effective reporting of results. A practical demonstration of time series, cross-sectional, and panel data analysis using E-views and Stata will be given.

This is an advanced course in business research. The primary objectives of this course are to help students understand the research process and to enable them to carry out research individually in a systematic manner. Students must attend every class on time and actively participate in classroom discussions. The instructor will provide all necessary reading materials and PowerPoint slides. Students must study for 4 hours weekly to do well on the exam. Students should spend at least 60 hours outside the classroom to achieve good grades in this course.

Teaching methods are mainly based on lectures and practical demonstrations using E-views and Stata. PowerPoint slides will be given to the students before each lecture so they can make the necessary preparations for the forthcoming classes. The instructor will first discuss the concepts and rationales behind each topic to increase students' theoretical knowledge. Then the instructor will solve several problems in class using statistical software. Afterward, students must solve the prescribed exercises and problems at home and discuss their solutions in class. Then the instructor will address all critical issues so students can rectify their mistakes.
