Applied Doctoral Research Project Guide: Tasks (8)

In BUSI 887, tasks are critical checkpoints that ensure doctoral candidates’ capstone manuscript sections are thoroughly reviewed, meet academic standards, and are approved before progressing to the next stage. The course includes eight key tasks:

Each milestone requires submission through Canvas, where the chair provides detailed feedback to help refine the work and ensure it is methodologically sound and aligned with research objectives. These milestones are essential for maintaining academic rigor, providing structured feedback, and tracking the candidate’s progress. Doctoral candidates are expected to submit milestones on time, incorporate all feedback, and promptly resubmit revised work for approval. Successful completion of these milestones is crucial for the candidate’s progression in the course and their overall dissertation journey, marking significant steps toward achieving their doctoral degree.

The quizzes are designed to help the candidate self-report progress in developing the dissertation manuscript. These quizzes serve as a checkpoint for the candidate to reflect on the work accomplished, ensure the candidate is meeting course activity and attendance requirements, and keep the candidate on track.
