Professional Assignment 2: CLO 1, CLO 2, CLO 3
Write a 2–4 page research topic proposal that integrates insights from the Week 6 readings and
builds on themes introduced in earlier weeks.
Your proposal should:
Identify a Research Question
Develop a research question that explores the intersection of sustainable technology adoption,
geopolitical decoupling, and institutional factors. You can build on the knowledge developed
across prior weeks. However, make sure you have original content. Examples of interesting
questions include:
● How do institutions and industrial robot diffusion collectively shape sustainable
economic growth in decoupling economies?
● What are the implications of US-China decoupling for trade-dependent sectors adopting
advanced technologies?
● How can global businesses align strategies for sustainable growth with the evolving
geopolitical and economic dynamics described in both weeks?
Provide a Brief Literature Review
Write 1–2 paragraphs synthesizing insights from at least two Week 6 peer-reviewed readings
(Wu et al., 2023; Witt et al., 2023) and one peer-reviewed reading from prior weeks to justify
the importance of your research question.
