RM Course Outline

This course aims to teach research scholars how to design and model research problems, identify appropriate analysis techniques, and interpret results. It is divided into 3 modules. Module 1 covers topics in qualitative research methods and literature reviews. Module 2 focuses on basic statistical concepts, probability distributions, hypothesis testing, and MATLAB. Module 3 covers department-specific methodologies. Scholars will develop their understanding through classroom activities, assignments, and software training to apply what they learn to their own research areas.
