Graduate research is a complicated process which many engineering
and science students aspire to undertake. The complexity of the
process can lead to failures for even the most brilliant students.
Success with graduate level research requires not only a high level
of intellectual ability, but also a high level of program
management skills. After many years of supervising several graduate
students, I have found that most of them have the same basic
problems of planning and implementing their research programs. Even
the advanced graduate students need the same 'mentoring and
management' guidance that has little to do with actual classroom
performance. It is my conjecture that graduate students could make
a better job of their research programs if a self-paced guide were
available to them. The guide provided in this book covers topics
ranging from how to select an appropriate research problem to how
to schedule and execute research tasks. The book takes a project
management approach to planning and implementing graduate research
in engineering, science and manufacturing disciplines. It is a self
paced guide that will help graduate students and advisors answer
most of the basic questions about 'how to do this and how to do
that'. There is a need for such a guide book. The book will
alleviate frustration on the part of the student and the research
advisor."
