Business/Management Dissertation & Theses

While the ideas we’ve presented above are a decent starting point for finding a business-related research topic, they are fairly generic and non-specific. So, it helps to look at actual dissertations and theses to see how this all comes together.

Below, we’ve included a selection of research projects from various management-related degree programs (e.g., MBAs, DBAs, etc.) to help refine your thinking. These are actual dissertations and theses, written as part of Master’s and PhD-level programs, so they can provide some useful insight as to what a research topic looks like in practice.

  • Sustaining Microbreweries Beyond 5 Years (Yanez, 2022)
  • Perceived Stakeholder and Stockholder Views: A Comparison Among Accounting Students, Non-Accounting Business Students And Non-Business Students (Shajan, 2020)
  • Attitudes Toward Corporate Social Responsibility and the New Ecological Paradigm among Business Students in Southern California (Barullas, 2020)
  • Entrepreneurial opportunity alertness in small business: a narrative research study exploring established small business founders’ experience with opportunity alertness in an evolving economic landscape in the Southeastern United States (Hughes, 2019)
  • Work-Integrated Learning in Closing Skills Gap in Public Procurement: A Qualitative Phenomenological Study (Culver, 2021)

  • Science Data Sharing: Applying a Disruptive Technology Platform Business Model (Edwards, 2022)
  • Impact of Hurricanes on Small Construction Business and Their Recovery (Sahu, 2022)

Looking at these titles, you can probably pick up that the research topics here are quite specific and narrowly-focused , compared to the generic ones presented earlier. This is an important thing to keep in mind as you develop your own research topic. That is to say, to create a top-notch research topic, you must be precise and target a specific context with specific variables of interest . In other words, you need to identify a clear, well-justified research gap.

Business Management Dissertation Topics

Charles Whitehouse

Business management is more complicated than it originally seems. A lot goes into running a business. From financial management to marketing management, business management dissertations topics can encompass a whole range of concepts. Moving from finance to marketing, to design, to advertising, business management really does have it all.

When deciding on a business management dissertation topic, you need to narrow down the area you’re going to study. Although it would be nice to talk about lots of avenues of research, your dissertation will be stronger if it is more focused. There are several key areas of business management, let’s begin going through the main ones.

What types of business management dissertation topics are there?

Financial management dissertation ideas.

A business management dissertation in financial management will focus on the fiscal side of running a business. Financial directing, organising, and planning are essential for any business. Without your facts and figures in place, there is no way to measure the success of a business. If you’re interested in the financial management side of a business, this could be a topic to begin to research further into. There are many topics available in this avenue of research. For example, a typical financial management dissertation topic would be along the lines of:

Topic 1 : Exploring whether there is a relationship between corporate financial performance and corporate social responsibility

Topic 2 : Tracing if there is a connection between variations in salary and the effects of employee productivity

Human resource management dissertation ideas

Without workers, no business can run smoothly. Employees are the backbone of any company. Human resources manage the day-to-day operations of all worker-related tasks. This could extend to hiring and firing employees, or simply managing staff disputes and how employees are effectively used. A business management dissertation on human resource management could focus on strategies employed by the human resource department of a business. For instance, a typical title could look like this:

Topic 1 : An investigation into the distinct approaches to human resource management undertaken in the U.S. and China

Topic 2 : Should human resources be a site-to-site and case-by-case practice or follow a set companywide policy – an analysis of employee happiness in the workplace.

Marketing management dissertation ideas

Marketing management is about effective marketing alongside the skill of choosing the correct target markets. To oversee this process, you’ll have to use business management skills, alongside pulling in the knowledge of marketing.If the intersection of marketing and business management is something that interests you, this could be a fantastic avenue of research for your dissertation. In addition, remember, you can make your dissertation research follow any path you choose, so if you enjoy something, it’s best to stick to that! To illustrate, a typical business management dissertation title on marketing management could focus on a title such as:

Topic 1 : Are switching costs effective barriers to customer retention in the finance industry?

Topic 2 : The effectiveness of modern marketing endeavors taking place on new wave media much as Tik-Tok, Twitter, and Facebook

Operations management dissertation ideas

Operations management goes hand in hand with human resources, focusing on ensuring the business itself has the highest possible efficiency. Instead of managing employees, this section of business management focuses on materials, balances of revenues and costs, and creating a profit.What's more, supposing that you’re more interested in management and operations, this could be a great area of research for you. For example, a typical title of a business management dissertation in operations management would be:

Topic 1 : Exploring the efficiency of supply chain links between mainland Europe and the U.K.

Topic 2 : Comparing regional strategic management of high-street clothing companies: a comparison between Zara, New Look, and H&M

Project management dissertation ideas

Project management is a vital aspect of running a business. From overseeing employees to creating an effective action plan, project management is a critical skill. If you’re interested in this area of research, try and establish if you’re more interested in the human or operational side. In case that you’re more interested in the human side of project management, consider a title along the lines of ‘The difference in hard and soft skills in project management' for instance. Alternatively, you may be interested in the operational side of project management. If that’s the case, consider looking at a title along the lines of:

Topic 1 : The benefits of implementing machine learning into managing supply chains

Topic 2 : What is the most important stage of managing a project: a study into the different skills needed for planning, organising, delegating, and operating

How to choose a business management dissertation topic?

If you’re still not too sure which topic you want to write your business management about, you need to go back to the basics. First and foremost, begin by looking through your notes over the past several years of studying. Try to see if there was a module you performed better on than all others. That could be a productive place to start your search. When deciding on a dissertation title, be sure to pick something that captures your interest, and consult a business management tutor if necessary.

Nothing is worse than beginning a project and losing interest halfway through. Your business management dissertation should explore a factor of business that you’ve enjoyed studying. However, if you think of something original that no one else has done, use your dissertation to extend the field! Finally, The University of Nottingham has published a first-class dissertation examples related to business worth reading.

Leadership and Management Dissertation Topics

Leadership and Management Dissertation Topics: Leadership and management are two distinct but related concepts. Leadership is the ability to inspire and guide individuals or groups to achieve a common goal. Management is the process of planning, organizing, and overseeing the work of a team to accomplish a task or goal.

Effective leadership involves setting a clear vision, communicating expectations, and providing support and guidance to team members. It also involves the ability to motivate and inspire others, build relationships, and make tough decisions.

Effective management involves organizing and allocating resources, setting goals and objectives, and measuring and evaluating progress. It also involves the ability to delegate tasks and responsibilities, solve problems, and make decisions based on data and analysis.

Both leadership and management are important for the success of any organization. While they are distinct concepts, they often overlap and are complementary skills that a successful leader or manager should possess.

Best Leadership and Management Dissertation Topics for college students

Although both leadership and management are different aspects of personality and have their own individual areas of operations.

However, when combined together, they provide a new area for students to research and check for. Dissertation topics in leadership and management focus on all those areas that provide combined results of leadership and management.

Studying these two topics separately does not provide as inclusive results as their combination can provide. Therefore, researchers always go for both these areas in a collective manner.

If you are also interested in understanding how leadership and management work together, you can take a look at our chosen list of research topics in the field that has been given below:

  • Leadership and management in mental health services: focusing on the role played by consumers in the field.
  • Governance, management and leadership in the domain of school federations: a descriptive approach.
  • Leadership versus management: how they are different and the same at the same time?
  • Teaching leadership and management to university level students through strategic planning: a qualitative analysis.
  • Studying the impacts of leadership and management practices on teacher engagement at university levels.
  • The role played by law in the domain of leadership and management in school federations: a review of the literature.
  • Leadership and management practices for the first-line social workers and managers: a quantitative approach.
