MA study

Hi,

1) Is it OK to say a MA study -it sounds weird to start a sentence like this.
2) Is the preposition on OK here?
Thank you in advance.

A MA study on sale negotiation was conducted on the Faculty of Economics in XY.

'On' suggests that the Faculty of Economics was the object of the study. Is that what you mean?

I think you probably mean 'by'.

Hi Antonija,

If you are 'on the Faculty', it suggest that you teach students. I don't know if that's what you mean here.

Sorry, actually, the person who conducted a research is a student of the Faculty who did the research as a part of his MA thesis.
