- What are the steps needed to tackle a scientific research project?
Firstly you have to create hypothesis. For that reason you have to read a lot of literature reviews in your interested area.
Secondly, some universities have summer research programs. You can involve there. Or basically you can talk with your professor.
It is an accumulative process that needs to be built up on your previously acquired skills and accomplishments. I would suggest deciding a direction for your research career. A direction that is supported by your previous work. Secondly, you would want to find a research gap. The research gap would enable you to decide the potential institutions or peer researchers with whom you could get involved with in a research project. This takes you to networking. You should built a network of relations with people in your field and start hunting for opportunities of doing research and/or collaborating on a certain project.
