Research Plan Outline

People perceptions regarding different professions are casual to see, but I found women interface in a men's percept profession as an interesting topic to research on. This was not enough a piece of interest for me, I further expanded it by being particular for an ethnic group (Muslim). I observed that Muslim people see policing as a male profession and they might dislike female entrance in this profession. In Muslim faith, women should be veiled at home and must not try to be like a man, as their identities are different.

The questionnaires gives a platform to have a systematic analysis, and in depth spotlight with the instructions.

I used many external sources and books for understanding the Muslim concepts regarding females and their professions. I found an interesting book “for The Next Attack: The Globalization of Jihad” in which I saw the extremism of Muslim concept of Jihad and army that has a key motive to defend their religion and faith (Benjamin, 2005).
