COMMON QUESTIONS
Research Design Support
The research design phase of a PhD program is one of the most critical aspects of the research process. It involves planning and designing a study that is relevant, feasible, and capable of answering research questions or hypotheses. However, many PhD students may not have the necessary expertise or experience to develop a research design that meets the required standards. Therefore, a research design support service for PhD students can be very beneficial. This service can help students to develop a comprehensive research design that meets their research objectives.
Objective
The objective of the research design support service for PhD students is to provide guidance and support to students in designing their research projects. The service will help students to develop a research plan that is relevant, feasible, and scientifically rigorous. Additionally, it will help students to avoid common mistakes that may affect the validity and reliability of their research.
Scope
The research design support service for PhD students will provide assistance in the following areas: Research question or hypothesis development Literature review Research methodology and design Sampling techniques Data collection methods and instruments Data analysis methods Ethical considerations
Methodology
The research design support service will provide the following services to PhD students: Consultations: Students will have the opportunity to consult with experienced research professionals who will guide them through the research design process. These consultations will be conducted either face-to-face or online, depending on the preference of the student. Workshops: The service will provide workshops that cover various aspects of the research design process. These workshops will be conducted either on-campus or online and will be led by experienced researchers. Resources: The service will provide students with a range of resources that they can use to develop their research design. These resources will include research design templates, sample research designs, and instructional materials. Deliverables: The research design support service for PhD students will provide the following deliverables: A research design plan: The service will help students to develop a comprehensive research design plan that includes research questions, methodology, data collection, and analysis methods. A literature review: The service will provide guidance on how to conduct a comprehensive literature review that will support the research design.
Data collection instruments
The service will provide assistance in developing data collection instruments that are valid and reliable.
Ethical considerations Support
The service will provide guidance on ethical considerations that need to be addressed in the research design.
