Research is any original and systematic investigation undertaken to increase knowledge and understanding and to establish facts and principles. It comprises the creation of ideas and generation of new knowledge that lead to new and improved insights and the development of new material, devices, products and processes. The word " research " perhaps originates from the old French word recerchier that meant to 'search again'. It implicitly assumes that the earlier search was not exhaustive and complete and hence a repeated search is called for.

The term “research” is semantically overloaded given its use in everyday language. In an academic context, research is used to refer to the activity of a diligent and systematic inquiry or investigation in an area, with the objective of discovering or revising facts, theories, applications etc.

According to Mugenda & Mugenda (2010), research is process of carrying out a diligent inquiry or a critical examination of a given phenomenonexhaustive study that follows some logical sequence. Mouly defines research as a process of arriving at effective solutions to problems through systematic collection, analysis and interpretation of data. Research also involves a critical analysis of existing conclusions or theories with regard to newly discovered facts Research is the continued search for knowledge and understanding of the world around us. Clifford Woody argues that research is the process of designing and redefining problems, formulating hypothesis or suggested solutions, collecting, organizing and evaluating data, making deductions and reaching conclusions and carefully testing the conclusions to determine whether they fit the formulated hypothesis.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY (Basis in the Management and Business Process)

Boyke Hatman

Research method is a method or scientific technique to obtain data with specific purposes and uses. The scientific means or techniques in question are where research activities are carried out based on scientific characteristics. This is a set of rules, activities, and procedures used by the perpetrators. The methodology is also a theoretical analysis of a method or method. Research is a systematic investigation to increase knowledge, as well as systematic and organized efforts to investigate certain problems that require answers. The nature of research can be understood by studying various aspects that encourage research to do it properly. Every person has a different motivation, including influenced by their goals and profession. Motivation and research objectives in general are basically the same, namely research is a reflection of the desire of people who always try to know something. The desire to acquire and develop knowledge is a basic human need which is generally a motivation to conduct research. The validity of research data can be obtained by using valid instruments, using appropriate and adequate amounts of data sources, as well as correct data collection and analysis methods. To obtain reliable data, the instrument must be reliable and the research carried out repeatedly. Furthermore, to obtain objective data, the number of sample data sources approaches the population.Each study has specific goals and uses. In general, there are three types of research objectives, namely the nature of discovery, verification and development. The finding means that the data obtained from research is truly new data that has not been previously known.
