Importance of Research
- Research is as important as any field of study. Its significance cuts across all disciplines
engineering, architecture, medicine, arts and sciences, education, management, tourism, among
others. It also benefits all strata of society - people with diverse jobs, different income rates
varying financial status, or distinct social and political capabilities.

1. Research provides a scientific basis for any practice or methodology in any field or
discipline. This is important since an entire system or operation and all the stakeholders of an
institution or organization are at stake. Without scientific basis, someone may be affected or may
suffer. For example, in the field of medicine, a new drug must first be tested to determine its
efficacy in curing sickness before it can actually be prescribed.

2. Research is undertaken for the continuous development and further productivity in any
field. Any system that will be utilized in any organization must first be tried to determine its
value and it must be better than the previous system used. Simply, research is the result of
advancing knowledge from the past.

3. Research helps develop tools for assessing effectiveness of any practice and operation such as
psychological tests, intelligence quotient tests, psychological assessments, among others. This
importance of research is observed in behavioral science, physical science, and others as well.

4. Research provides solution to problems concerning all most all issues encountered in the
different areas of work. Some issues include the tardiness of employees, incentives given to the
staff, sportsmanship among school athletes, and implementation of a “clean and green” program
in school. This also applies to higher level problems.

5. Research impacts decision-making. It is a common mistake for people to make decisions


without solid information to back them up. It requires time, effort, and sometimes money to
gather the evidence needed for making a sound decision. For example, for a teacher to change his
or her teaching methodology for the first-period and last-period classes, he or she must conduct a
study considering the time element, enthusiasm to teach, academic standing of the students,
instructional aides used, several other factors.

6. Research develops and evaluates alternative approaches to the educational aspects of any
discipline. This enables the students to gain broad knowledge and specialized skills for safe
practice. For example, research can help determine whether lecture is a better method than
expirement in teaching Science.

7. Research aims to advance the personal and professional qualifications of a practitioner.
