...Texas A&M University – Commerce Department of Engineering & Technology TMGT 595 – Applied Research in Engineering & Technology Descriptive Research Study & Final Manuscript Each student will select a research topic of their choice appropriate to their degree field (technology management, safety management, or management information systems). Research topics must be submitted and approved by the instructor. A research question will be formulated for the topic and a descriptive archival study will be conducted. A descriptive study does not seek to show causal effects rather it is used to establish what currently exists. Data collection is commonly performed with surveys, questionnaires, standardized tests, or other direct observation instruments. The time limitation within the course does not permit a full descriptive study to be conducted. Rather than developing instruments and collecting actual data (which should not be done), each student will utilize data and findings from related published studies to establish what currently exists for a given phenomenon. The study will culminate in the preparation of a research paper suitable for publication. Each student will investigate and identify a journal that would be appropriate for their research paper topic. Note: The paper does not have to actually be submitted for publication. ------------------------------------------------- Each assignment is to be a unique and individual project. Students...

...MARKETING RESEARCH TERM PAPER PROJECT Overview Throughout the semester you will be working in research teams of three to four students each. Your role is that of a marketing research (MR) supplier or research consultant who works for a client organization requiring research information to help make marketing decisions. Each team will prepare a written MR report based on survey research—gathering information from a sample of people from a target population using a questionnaire. Each research team will plan the research design, conduct the fieldwork, analyze the data, and write a research report. This project is designed to provide a major "hands-on" experience since MR is best learned by doing. It will enable you to apply the concepts covered in the textbook and in class and to integrate the inter-related series of steps in the MR process. Research Problem/Opportunity In every presidential election since 1964, young voters between the ages of 18 through 24 have consistently voted at lower rates than all other age groups, although young-adult voting rates have fluctuated from one election to another. Overall, America’s youngest voters have moved towards less engagement over time, as 18- through 24-year-olds’ voting rates dropped from 50.9percent in 1964 to 38.0 percent in 2012 (see Fig. 1). Voting rates have also historically varied according to gender. In every presidential election since 1996, women have voted at higher rates than...
