Our research has been divided into two groups of strata. This means the ones who live in Karachi but distantthermost away and the ones who live outside Karachi.We have conduct this research through survey and will ask the IoBM students that would they like to avail this facility (if provided) to them or not?RESEARCH METHODOLOGYSamplE designQUOTA quantityStudents of IoBM At least 60% long-route 100People (students)Students live in Karachi 60% 60Students live outside Karachi 40% 40Our population includes every student who lives in Karachi but little far away from IoBM and as well students who live outside Karachi. No age or gender enclosure is imposed. However to suffer a mature result, we would be targeting people above seventeen years of age.The above mentioned table shows how we have distributed the total transport users. We have set a quota that our respondents must contain at least 60% of the people who live in Karachi but little far away from IoBM and the be population should belong to some other areas of Pakistan. This quota is set because of the fact that they are the ones who are the most familiar users of such type of hostel facilities if provided to them.Because of many factors like time and control of work, we are keeping our judge size small. The total consume size is of 100 respondents. Moreover, we are not dividing the population geographic regions. Therefore, people from every part of the city have the equal participation opportunity.Research designWe selected survey methodology because it is quick and inexpensive. The cost of contacting the respondents is very low and respondents will contact randomly from classes, program library, and activity centre of IoBM etc. Person-administered questionnaires were developed which are more accurate than face to face interviews in which many open end answers would be given.A short and simple questio nnaire was designed for this research. As our segment of the target audience includes students from IoBM only. take a crap and contact number of every respondent is recorded for the back checking of the data. This eliminates the most common researcher slash in which the field researchers cheat by self filling the questionnaires. We tried to keep things very unbiased so that our course instructor or other concern authorities may any time randomly check our data collection efforts. This will eventually increased the credibility of our research findings. info collectionEvery group member worked as a field worker in carrying out the research. The female group members as well as male group members collected data from boys and girls. We wanted to make sure that there shouldnt be any gender biasness involve in our research. We went and interviewed students from activity centre, library and etc. We tried our best to cover the students who live in all areas of Karachi and as well as outsid e Karachi.HYPOTHESIS worthless Hypothesis Students of IoBM prefer the hostel facility.Alternative Hypothesis Students of IoBM dont prefer the hostel facility.DATA ANALYSISAll of the questions were close ended except the remarks of the respondents. This made our analysis work much easier. We developed a complete database of all the hundred questionnaires in SPSS software.LimitationsInitially, we thought to target 200 respondents. But then we realized that as the questionnaires are person-administered, so it will increase our time per respondent. That is why we dependent our sample size to 100 respondents.As the research is carried out by a group of sestet students, limited human resource definitely restricted us from covering a large sample size.This research is compiled under immense time pressure. Some more time might have improve the accuracy of this research.RESEARCH PROPOSALPROBLEMThe problem of the topic is that students who live far away from Korangi get chaotic and tired because of their long routes which tend to affect their performance. The law and order situation of Karachi is deteriorating day by day so many a times the students who live far away and in the areas which are not safe have to miss their classes as they are unable to reach university in strikes and calamities.Secondly, the students who live outside Karachi are hesitant to come to IoBM even after getting admission, because of the absence of hostel facility. So IoBM loses valuable students who can add to its prestige.So our research problem is Should there be hostel facility for the students of IoBM.OBJECTIVEThe prime objective of Hostel is to provide the students with the necessary amenities to develop an integrated personality, besides providing a calm and peaceful atmosphere for students.The personal development of students could also be nurtured and supported through living in a community environment.The secondary objective of establishing hostel for students of Institute of busin ess management is to provide them a Home away from their Home where they can feel some ease and put their best in academics.DESIGN in inseparable entropy Google search engine, Jstor.com, Springerlink.com, Yahoo search engine.Primary Data Descriptive Survey Research.SAMPLESampling quota At least 80% long-route people (students)Students live in Karachi 60Students live outside Karachi 40 motionNAIRELanguage English only (Because we are targeting only students of Iobm and thus we dont required multiple languages)No. of Questions 15-18VariablesPositive Impact on Studies (Dependent Variable)Easeful routine (Dependent Variable)Hostel Facility (Independent Variable)competency (Intervening Variable)Ease of registration (Moderating Variable)PROJECT MANAGEMENTMembers 6 ResearchersAll students of MBR20 questionnaires per researcherScheduling Oct 20, 2010 Secondary data collectionOct 20, 2011 Questionnaire designOct 30, 2010 Sampling Quota settingNov 1, 2010 Survey startingNov 4, 2010 Collect ion compilation of questionnairesNov 6, 2010 Evaluating (results) studies variablesNov 17, 2010 reading material of results in meaningful forms.COSTINGFor QuestionnaireNo. of prints (P) = 100Total Pages (TP) = 200Cost per print page (CP) = 10 decamp per page (PC) = 1 rupee2(TP) * 10(CP) = 20 rupees198(TP) * 1(PC) = 198Total Cost = Prints Cost + Photocopy Cost + Travelling CostTotal Cost = 20 + 198 + 150Total Cost of Questionnaires = 368For key outNo. of prints (P) = 38Cost per plane print = 10Cost per colored print = 15Total colored prints = 20Total plane prints = 17Colored Prints Cost = 20 * 15 = 300Plane prints Cost = 18 * 10 = 180480TOTAL COSTQuestionnaire Cost + level printing cost368 + 470850 approx.FINDINGS ANALYSISSECTION AGENDER68.9% Male respondents31.1% Female Respondents68.9%31.1%Question 1When asked about the residence of the respondents 40% replied that there indissoluble residence is outside Karachi and 60% claimed that they are permanent residential of Karachi. enquire 2The permanent residential of Karachi are from diversified locations that cant be reason through SPSS scruple 3When the respondents were asked about how they come to university in the sense of mode of transport than 61% respondents replied that they come through Universitys own transport (University Van), 30% replied that they prefer their own conveyance to reach IoBM where as only 9% respondents claimed that that use public transport (Buses, Taxi or Rickshaw) to come to IoBMQUESTION 4On asking about the time they spent in coming to IoBM 40% respondents claimed that it takes them an hour to reach university, 49% respondents claimed that it takes them 1-2 hours to reach IoBM where as 11% respondents claimed that it takes More than 2 hours to them to reach IoBM.QUESTION 5On asking the question that how many of respondents from the sample of 100 would like to avail Hotel facility if IoBM provides?
