Research courses can help you learn data collection techniques, statistical analysis, literature review methods, and experimental design. You can build skills in critical thinking, hypothesis testing, and effective communication of findings. Many courses introduce tools like SPSS, R, and Python for data analysis, as well as reference management software such as EndNote or Zotero, which support the organization and presentation of research projects.
