1.3.1 Introduction to Structure of Research

Course subject(s) Module 1. Introduction to Research

In this section we will introduce you to the different cycles that are used in research, the Science Cycle and the Scientific Method, and compare these to the Design Cycle and the Engineering Method  as often used in engineering. We will dispel the myths that engineering does not involve scientific research and that engineering design is not scientific. It is not good versus evil, but about working side-by-side.
