This assignment requires you to conduct independent research and study of a project management topic of your choice with the objective of responding to a research question

The paper must be based on a topic relative to the course subject matter with the focus on investigating a specific research question. This effort should require approximately 8-10pages of written text. The following content structure is recommended:

• Cover Page
• Introduction (approximately 1 page)
• Research Question (should be a focused statement)
• Review of Relevant Literature (as needed to support research findings; should be current within ten years)
• Analysis (Critical Thinking) (approximately 3 pages)
• Conclusions and Response to the Research Question (approximately 1 page)
• Reference Page

Some research questions for consideration are:

• How can a project manager minimize the project life cycle impacts of engineering design changes issued during the execution phase?
• How do project management ethics influence success or failure of a project?
• What are the major challenges associated with organizing and managing a project team?
