Assignment-I: Topic Selection & Research Questions (15 points)
A topic of research should be chosen. It can be either a research paper or a startup concept.
Once the topic is finalized, the research questions (based on which objectives of the study
will be formed) must be developed (not more than three). Each selection must be discussed
in detail with logic and rationale. Reasons for the topic should be discussed first followed
by discussion on selection of each of the research questions.
