During this semester, we reviewed a number of areas in risk and risk management, risk assessment, and the way in which companies can try and minimize their risk exposure.

• As you get closer to starting your own dissertation, you will need to choose a topic in your first dissertation class DSRT 736, so it is essential to start preparing.
• This week, let us take a look at some topics to consider, and by the end of the week, we could have several ideas for dissertation topics.
• Since you have already examined several research articles, another way would be to examine previous dissertations in these areas.
• Visit the University of Cumberlands' library, go to the Dissertation Database, and locate an interesting topic on risk, a model, framework, some approach to minimizing risk, etc.

Question 1: Is the topic attainable for a first-time dissertation student?

Question 2: Is the problem rooted in the literature?

Question 3: Is the research empirical, i.e., is there a survey, is there an interview guide, has the data been analyzed via some statistical tool?

Question 4: Is there a theoretical model or framework discussed?
