Design Methods and Practices for Research of Project Management is the most comprehensive guide on how to do research of and in project management. Project management as a discipline has experienced near-exponential growth in its application across the business and not-for-profit sectors. This second edition of the authoritative reference book offers a substantial update on the first edition with over 60% new content and so provides both practitioner and student researchers with a fully up-to-date and complete guide to research practice on project management.

In Design Methods and Practices for Research of Project Management, Beverly Pasian and Rodney Turner have brought together 27 original chapters from many of the leading international thinkers in project management research. The collection looks at each step in the research stages, including research strategy, management, methodology (quantitative and qualitative), techniques as well as how to share and publish research findings. The chapters offer an international perspective with examples from a wide range of project management applications; engineering, construction, mega-projects, high-risk environments and social transformation. Each chapter includes tips and exercises for the research student, as well as a complete set of further references.

The book is the go-to text for practitioners undertaking research in companies, and also doctoral and masters students and their supervisors who are involved in research projects in and for universities.

Beverly Pasian is Associate Professor, Utrecht University of Applied Sciences, The Netherlands. She was the founding President of the Project Management Association of Canada and the first recipient of its Fellowship award. She was the Dutch representative for the IPMA International Research Management Board (2012-14), expert member on several research projects, chair of the Dutch National Research Group (2013-15) and was the academic program lead for the 2014 World Congress in Rotterdam.

Rodney Turner is the author and editor of eighteen books, including The Handbook of Project-based Management and the Gower Handbook of Project Management. He was editor of The International Journal of Project Management from 1993-2018. He is a visiting professor at the University of Leeds, and honorary professor at the University of Warwick. Most recently he was Professor of Project Management at SKEMA Business School, in Lille France, SAIPEM Professor of Project Management at the Politecnico di Milano, and Professor and High-End Foreign Expert at Shanghai University. In 2004 he received a life-time research achievement award from the Project Management Institute, and in 2012 from the International Project Management Association.
