Dear Sir/Madam,

I am presently an MBA student and have chosen HR as my specialization for the current semester. I am interested in conducting research in the HR field, which is very challenging and vast. Therefore, I require your assistance to initiate my research in this area.

I kindly request you to provide me with some diverse HR topics that would be beneficial for organizations to consider upon the completion of my research.

I am looking forward to your prompt response.

Thank you,

Yours truly,

Suganya,

There are plenty of topics that you can consider for your project work. Choose a topic that has current relevance and where industries are interested. Some suggested topics include:
- Competency mapping
- Balanced scorecard
- Performance management
- Quality of worklife
- Employee attitude survey
- HRD climate
- Training needs analysis
- Team building, etc.

These are just a few suggestions.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your earlier response. From your suggestion, I have chosen two topics:

1. Performance Management
2. Quality of Work Life

I request you to give a brief outline of the above two topics.

Thanking you,

Hi,

Although all topics are there, I want to include one which I think is good and important: "INDUCTION TRAINING."

Best of luck!

Hi,

I am also pursuing my MBA in HR. I have done my project on HRIS (Human Resource Information Systems) and found it really interesting and helpful. This topic will give you practical exposure.

Cheers!

Hi all,

Is "competitive analysis on compensation and wages" a good topic? I have chosen this title for my project. I wanted to know if it is good. Please help me and give your suggestions.

Hi Raj,

I can help you, but please do not request finished projects or questionnaires on this forum without providing enough information.

Instead of asking for a completed project, please search CiteHr where some projects are attached. Then, do a literature survey and formulate your aim and objectives for the research (in consultation with the host organization). You also need a conceptual framework for that. Decide on the hypotheses you want to test.

If you have not done any of the above essential preparation for conducting a project, I would advise you to please do so and then pose a precise question.

Please see my post on Research Methodology (Ppt slides attached) at https://www.citehr.com/106849-research-projects.html and Author Workshops at [link outdated-removed] and my post at [link no longer exists - removed].

A Post by Prodcons also has information on Research Methodology.

Also view and digest the message that ahujamamamia posted at citehr https://www.citehr.com/169377-marble-story.html. Try to become the marble statue rather than the tile.

I have copied the post by Sayansayu on questionnaire or welfare measures - reg.

Hello friends,

Situation will make us do things... we are all in search of capsules, right? I also made an attempt, a shortcut for easily getting the questionnaire, but I failed. I found all types of questionnaires over here but not our topic. It was very urgent for me, and there were no options at all. At last, lazy Sayana also decided to prepare a questionnaire by herself, and I did. For that, I referred to the factory act of welfare measure, company profile, their welfare facilities, questionnaire formats available over here, etc. All the time of my experience shows that we become lazy because of the facilities available to us. Actually, all this is meant to make us more capable, but we are misusing these facilities. I am also in that list. At first, I got irritated when I read the reply by the moderator Mr. Nashbramhall, advising not to expect someone else to send a questionnaire. At that time, I thought then for what purpose is this citehr. Anyway, I know you people are also like me, so I am attaching my questionnaire with regard to welfare measures. I don't know how much I succeeded in preparing these questionnaires, but I hope it will also be helpful to you dudes.

With regards,

Sayana N.A

Hey, you can research on "Psychometric Assessments - their Validation and Reliability." These days, psychometric assessments are extensively used. You can shed light on its relevance and reliability.

To my knowledge, all the topics that the college teachers have suggested were also given to me by my professors 15 years ago. It shows that we are still discussing the same topics.

Look at the following topics:
- Value creation by HR for end customers
- Cross-cultural issues (discuss this topic with students who are planning to go to Australia)
- Compensation strategies in times of recession
- Managing a recession

I am doing industrial psychology and have to do an internship and project. I was thinking about doing my project on recruitment and placement criteria for call centres and BPOs. What do you all think? Any suggestions?

Additionally, I have two mini-projects on the future of organizational behavior and the future of human resource management. Could you provide a brief idea on how to go about it? Thanks.

Dear Mr. Srinivasa Rao,

Can you please provide me with your email address?

Here at citeHR, people are kindly requested neither to ask for copies of projects and completed assignments, let alone soft copies, nor to provide the same (as I have seen cases where students have copied and submitted them as their own).

Have a nice day,

Sir, please guide me for a good project regarding the topic you have given. I want to know if, while doing a project, it is necessary to only add more and more theoretical knowledge, or if whatever practical experience we gain should be applied to make the project.
