Abstract  \nThe overall goal of this course for research students is to develop a deeper view on the research methodology and corresponding ethics. The primary content will include research attitude, problem definition, literature search and review, quantitative and qualitative methods, presenting research materials, publication and research career. Special emphasis is given to research ethics and how to write applications for ethical approval. Students will also develop the subject of their research with critical thinking and individual judgement and obtain skills required in interpreting published results, writing research proposals, reports and dissertation in the area of chemical methods and technology.  \n2.
