The book covers all important aspects of research methodology. The specific demands of engineering students including methods and tools are discussed in great detail. It discusses effective research in engineering today, which requires the ability to undertake literature review while utilizing different online databases, the knowhow as to how to undertake effective literature review, how to attribute credit for any prior art referred in work, how to build intellectual property rights while simultaneously maintaining ethics in research, and much more. The book also discusses soft skills like research management and planning, dealing with criticism in research and presentation skills which are all equally important and need to be imparted as a part of research methodology education. It contains distinguishing features such as the technical knowhow needed to file patents in academia which is actually an important feature in the methodology of research, but is usually unaddressed in all research methodology books. Research methods in different fields of engineering should also include ways and means of technical reading. The book will be a particularly good read for PhD students in India and South East Asia, as research methodology is a part of their coursework.
