Research

The research process is about knowing where to search, understanding what you are looking for, and determining how you will use it once you find it.

Understanding your assignment, choosing a good topic, and deciding whether a source is worth your time are essential research skills. The Queens College has developed a 5 guide series that will provide tips to help get you started and develop your research skills and strategies.
