Survey research methods are applied by management information systems scholars.

In the first workshop, we discuss the methodology of survey studies in information systems, looking at how to relate interdisciplinary research topics, reviewing literature to identify potential models and designing questionnaire to rest the models. In the second workshop, we discuss how students can contribute to the survey research study. MPhil students can join with faculty to develop research projects leading to publications in academic journals.
