Hi dear,
I'm working on my master dissertation proposal. The topic is How does Six Sigma relate to the Project Management Body of Knowledge?
I need help to set the research objectives and research questions.
What are might be?

This is a tough one. I'm not very familiar with Six Sigma, but I know that it is all about standardizing manufacturing procedures to minimize errors. Your job is to read about Six Sigma and read Project Management literature. My job is to tell you about research objectives.
Research studies are supposed to improve practice, answer questions, or solve problems. If you want to look at how Six Sigma relates to project management literature, read some articles about each. Write a paragraph about every point you think is meaningful. Then, ask yourself how Six Sigma fits in the field of project mgt.
It seems difficult, but all you have to do right now is read about project management and write a few paragraphs about every article you find. That is, write about the main idea of each article about project mgt.
Then, when you read about Six Sigma, project mgt will be fresh in your mind.
As for the objectives and questions... when you read articles about project mgt., you should take note of any problems that exist in the field. For that reason, you need to read articles from 2011, 2010, 2009, or 2008 if you can. See what is going on RIGHT NOW in the field. What problems need to be solved? What problems can be solved with Six Sigma.
:-)
