Hi,
There have been some recent changes to the OBU project. I was confused with this statement in the latest information pack for May & Nov 2016 submission periods.The statement is:
“Topics 8 and 15 new requirements: May 2016 (Period 32) and November 2016 (Period 33)
All students submitting a project on topic 8 or topic 15 in either May 2016 or November 2016 MUST use sector specific organisations, based on the Industry Classification Benchmark (ICB). These sectors are:
Airlines, Pharmaceuticals and Biotechnology Mobile telecommunications
These sectors will apply to students submitting for the first time or for students changing topic in both the May 2016 (Period 32) and November 2016 (Period 33). Sectors for future periods will be released on 1st December each year and will cover the following two submission periods. The main focus of your project research must be an analysis / evaluation of the project topic area issues in the context of your chosen organisation”
I was working on my project and choose topic 8, the company that I choose falls in the automotive sector. I couldn’t complete the project in time for the Nov 15 submission, now I want to complete the project and submit it during May 16 period. But I’m confused with the above statement if OBU has limited the sectors or what? Can I continue my thesis with the current company or do I have to start over with a new company from the above sectors only.
Kindly advise. Thanks…
