“Re” is a prefix- meaning again, anew or over again
“search” is a verb- meaning to examine closely and

Together they form a noun describing a careful,
systematic, patient study and investigation in some
field of knowledge, undertaken to establish facts or

Research Methodology

 Research methodology is a way to systematically solve


the research problem.
 It may be understood as a science of studying how
research is done scientifically.
 In it we study the various steps that are generally adopted
by a researcher in studying his research problem along
with the logic behind them
