Dear Research Community,

As a newcomer to the field of research, I am seeking guidance on a specific matter related to affiliations in research papers. Consider a scenario where a student is currently enrolled in an online Master's degree program at a reputable institution, such as the University of Berkeley. This student is preparing to publish a research paper in a peer-reviewed journal.

My question pertains to the formatting of the "affiliation" section. Should it be presented as follows:

Emma Smith Department of Engineering Management University of Berkeley, Berkeley Masters Of Engineering in Engineering Management Email: emma.smith@berkeley.edu

Or would it be more appropriate to include the term "Online," like this:

Emma Smith Department of Engineering Management University of Berkeley, Berkeley Masters Of Engineering in Engineering Management, Online

Should I make it more specific to write it in affiliation section as a online program

I appreciate your valuable insights and expertise on this matter

Hi All,

I hope this message finds you in good health.

I am a MSc student at Anglia Ruskin University. I am studying Construction and Civil Engineering Management.

I am currently working on my dissertation and would like your valuable help.

I am investigating the positive impact offsite modular construction may have on the housing crisis prevalent in the United Kingdom.

For my study, I have decided to conduct a questionnaire so that I can get a deeper look into the views of senior managers and or people working in the construction of the houses in the UK. I aim to explore the adequacy and effectiveness of offsite modular construction. The possibility is that a change in construction systems could speed home completions and may mitigate the housing shortage.

I believe that with your help I can get a better understanding of this study and an idea of how to clarify the housing shortage. I am asking for 5 minutes of your time. In order to take part in a five-minute questionnaire that will possibly provide insight into the housing shortage issue.

Please feel free to contact me if you would like to take part in this study.

Thank you for your time.

Actually, I am doing research in Engineering management. I have to use AHP for weighting computation and Topsis for Ranking computation I just want to know which software I can use to analyze If you can help please answer my questions Thanks

Assalamualaikum and Hai

Dear fellow researchers, I have published two papers in December 2019 and February 2020 in TEST Engineering & Management Magazine but my name and affiliation were incorrectly stated. I have tried to email, call, and fax the Editor of the Journal to make corrections but sadly the Editor seems irresponsive. Thus, I would be obliged if anyone could kindly assist me with alternative ways to contact the Editor ( (other emails, Whatsapp, or phone number) instead of the contact info provided by the Journal's website or if you know anyone who can I refer and can help me to correct the information in both of my published papers.

Please advise. JazakAllah and thank you very much.

Regards

My name is Bala Vignesh Subramanian, doing my Master's in Engineering Management in Northumbria university . I am currently perusing my final year research dissertation under the topic "Project Management practices towards energy security and sustainable urban development in the UK". The goal of the survey is to attain the sustainable urban development in the UK, I would like to know how professionals are thinking about the sustainable urban development, energy security practices and project management practices towards NetZero Carbon.  Please take a moment to share your opinions with me by taking this survey it will takes around 5 minutes. I would like to welcome you to fill the survey. No personal information would be collected in this survey, instead only research related (on 5 point Linkert scale) and some demographic questions would be asked. All data collected will remain anonymous and stored securely under the university data protection policy.  Thank you in advance for your participation.

This is sad to see that Dr T.Subramani and M.Kumutha of Civil Engineering VMKV Engineering College, Salem (Tamil Nadu, India) have plagiarised an article from the thesis of Mr Upendra Mani Pradhan (done under university of Manitoba - https://mspace.lib.umanitoba.ca/xmlui/handle/1993/21552 ).

Authors have published an article (https://www.ijaiem.org/pabstract.php?vol=Volume4Issue5&pid=IJAIEM-2015-05-15-23) in the journal of "International Journal of Application or Innovation in Engineering & Management " (with ISSN 2319- 4847) which has also not cared to check for plagiarism.

This journal claims to be indexed in Scopus, Web of Science & Google scholar (https://www.ijaiem.org/index.html)

I had complained to the journal in April & August 2021 regarding the same. Still, no action has been taken. This is an injustice to science and a researcher.

What else can be done? And how to stop these things in future?

Hello everyone, I am pursuing my Masters in Engineering Management at UT Arlington, aiming to become a project manager, In my journey, I want to understand the psychological behaviour of the clients that we face and trying to grasp the dynamic decision-making techniques. Anyone with a little bit of experience please guide me.

Thanks in advance.

I want to know whether this is a genuine link or fake.

I am invited by them as a speaker.

I’ve worked in both organisational structures pyramid and matrix. They both have their pros and cons but which structure do you prefer and why?

Many informal settlements have insufficient capacity to forecast, check, handle and reduce disaster risk. These communities face a growing range of challenges including economic hardship, technological and social impediments, urbanisation, under-development, wildfire, climate change, flooding, drought, geological hazards and the impact of epidemics such as HIV/AIDS and COVID-19, sometimes termed ‘the burden of disease’. The inability of these communities to withstand adversities affects the sustainability of initiatives to develop them.

This is a question I would have asked during my masters degree research on Resilience in Disasters. I would like to know the opinions of other researchers as I would like to properly answer this question in a different research-related topic.

I am researching on creating an organic brick based on fly ash, coarse sand, and stone dust. However, for that I am trying to locate a highly cost effective binder, preferably hydrophobic and organic to minimize environmental impact and offer the tensile strength necessary for practical applications..

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone: I want to do a project in " Engineering Management, Mechanical department" so I want to someone to help me to choose the related topics in this field, also I intended to develop that topic to pursue thesis to get PhD.

Thank you so much...

Am currently looking for new research areas in the Engineering management field, at the moment am considering lean and green engineering, but would appreciate any  additions or new area of opening.

I need a research problem to start my PhD in 2017 in Engineering Management. Mainly focus on "Operations Research" / "Optimization" or "Decision Problems" aspects. (Other latest, related research problems are also appreciated).

Any system for preparing and making engineering decisions must to be described by complex optimization, simulation and graphical representation. Optimization models needs to be decomposed and completed subsystems and systems description by simulation and graphical procedures. All these procedures help in options generation, detailed calculation and the posteriori solutions composition.

Hi. Does anyone have an excel program or thesis about flank wear using the

Taguchi method in end milling? Please can you help me.

Information economy and knowledge management systems are now strategic forces in the world market. As per some reports, only 10% of the total software engineering & management project succeed with respect to their original goals / business objectives. Irrespective of the applied methodology, be it Waterfall / Agile / Scrum, their is indeed an accentuating probability of cost inflationary spiral in any software development life-cycle. What would be the right model to predict / control the situation in context and prescribe a solution? If there is already a method, what are the data structures and economic paradigms to support this investigation.

I want to explore how to make strategic management to manage solid wastes in an industrial area in a developing country. What is the proper method for this? SWOT analysis and/or any other recent methods?

Renewable energy technologies are the solution for the reduction of greenhouse gases generated by the power sector. However, we have to take into account the complete life cycle of these technologies (How much energy is needed to produce them, to transport them, to install them, to maintain them, and to dispose of them). Taking into account all these factors, and the relatively high initial cost, can renewable energy still compete with fossil-fuel sources? Even if we internalize the environmental costs of the latter?

Some Researches mention that because of workplace deviance US economies will loss $50 billion (Because of theft) annually. They are measuring the workplace deviance in monetary unit. Could anyone please show me or refer me the way to measure the amount of workplace deviance (e.g., production deviance) in monetary unit or other unit? Is it logical to identify the gap between the production capacity and the ultimate production as the production deviance?
