Researchers poor in methodology

MEDAN: A university professor here has said that the weak research methodology has caused difficulties to researchers at various colleges in this province.

Dr. H.M. Solly Lubis said on Saturday that as a result, many research proposals have been rejected by the State University of North Sumatra and other local colleges.

Lubis urged colleges to continue with their training programs on research methodology for junior lecturers and young researchers in order to improve quality, Antara reported.

The professor, who is the former head of the Social and Cultural Research Center of the University of North Sumatra, said it is high time now to introduce junior researchers to the system of research and development management. (tis)
