• US DATA (2020-2030): Medical &
nursing highest growth potential & income
growth, followed by
computers/mathematics/data related jobs.
• Routine jobs will make way for
automation.
• Most American & foreign MNCs will
attract talent from Asia in their fast-growing
sectors. We will undergo brain drain.
• Retaining good talent is going to be a
challenge for smaller countries like
Malaysia.
• Talent war & poaching are going to
intensify, given demand for talent is
outpacing supply.

Introduction to Research
Methodology
WHAT IS A RESEARCH?
What is a Research ?
Research: The word research is composed of two
syllables “Re” and “Search”.
“Re” is the prefix meaning ‘Again or over again or
a new’ and “Search” is the latter meaning ‘to
examine closely and carefully’ or ‘to test and try’.
Together they form, a careful, systematic, patient
study and investigation in some field of knowledge
undertaken to establish principles / policies.
Research Defined and Described
“Research is the systematic approach to obtaining and
confirming new and reliable knowledge”
– Systematic and orderly (following a series of steps)
– Purpose is new knowledge, which must be reliable
This is a general definition which applies to all disciplines
22
Methodology and Research Design
Research is creating new knowledge - Neil Armstrong
Armstrong (1930-2012) was an American astronaut famed for being the first man to
walk on the Moon.
Research is what I'm doing when I don't know what I'm doing - Wernher von Braun
Von Braun (1912-1977) was a German-American physicist and rocket engineer whose
team launched the first US satellite into space.
If we knew what we were doing, it would not be called research - Albert Einstein
In the methodology section, two main issues are addressed:

The methods used to gather data
The methods used to analyse the data
Methodology and Research Design
In Any Thesis/Dissertation/Final Year Project Report :
If you have 3 Objectives.
You Must Have 3 Methods to Achieve those 3 Objectives.
You Must Have 3 Main Results to Show You Achieved All 3

Objectives.
You Must Have 3 Conclusions for your 3 Results/Objectives.

Methodology Justification
• Why and how did you choose the targeted
population/sample?
• Why did you choose the particular method?
• Is the methodology appropriate to your field of
study?
• Is the methodology appropriate to the objectives
of the study?
Research is not
Accidental discovery :
1. Accidental discovery may occur in structured
research process
2. Usually takes the form of a phenomenon not
previously noticed
3. May lead to a structured research process to
verify or understand the observation
26
Research is not … cont.
Searching out published research results in
libraries (or the internet)
• This is an important early step of research
• The research process always includes synthesis
and analysis
• But, just reviewing of literature is not research
27
Research is…
1. Searching for explanation of events, phenomena,
relationships and causes
–What, how and why things occur
–Are there interactions?
2. A process
– Planned and managed – to make the information generated
credible
– The process is creative
– It is circular – always leads to more questions
28
Writing Thesis/Project Proposals: The Big Picture
Your proposal describes your proposed plan of work:
• What you intend to study (Scope and Research
Questions).
• How you intend to study your topic (Methodology).
• Why this topic needs to be studied (Significance).
• When you will complete this work (Timeline).
• (Occasionally) Where you will conduct this work.
Quantitative vs Qualitative
Quantitative Qualitative
Structured data Unstructured data
Statistical analysis Summary /Describe
Objective conclusions Subjective conclusions
Survey, experiment Interviews, focus groups
Based on numbers Based on opinions & experiences
Larger sample Smaller sample
Mostly closed ended question Open ended questions
Research methodology is conclusive Research methodology is exploratory
