Kasetti Venkateswarlu

Abstract :

Research Methodology means the complete strategy and approach towards the objective. Methodology is a body of practices, procedures, and rules used by those who work in a discipline or engage in an inquiry, using a set of working methods. Research Methodology essentially requires support and application of an integrated management methodology for achieving a desired accomplishment. The management methodology essentially is of a systems approach, consisting of: strategy, planning, resources optimization, feedback and control. Any research work has to be dealt with appropriate project management methods. This is because research is all about future, unknown, uncertainty, change and working under constraints with many agencies about which the researcher has little control. The essentials ingredients such as work identification inform of activities and components, field work arrangements and practice of ethical code/guidelines at every stage of research project are discussed suitably
