Research project success: the essential guide for science and engineering students
McCormac, Cliodhna
This book is a concise, multilevel resource that provides guidance on the core components common to almost every project within the physical, engineering and life sciences (problem assessment and contextualisation, literature review practices, sources and citation, data presentation, reporting styles, data analysis and error etc). It standardises the delivery of the material but, more importantly, links the components together by outlining a coherent procedural road map that can highlight to the student ‘what to do’, ‘when to do it’ and ‘how to solve it’ procedures. The content of the book is presented through case studies so as to enhance the relevance of the processes, presents examples of good practice and, in keeping with the toolbox approach, can be readily adapted and applied by the students. INDICE: Preparing the Groundwork; Background Material; Conducting the Review; Health and Safety - Risk Assessments and COSHH; Doing the Work; Writing the Dissertation; Preparing a Poster
