RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research Methodology is a module which enables us to do research individually and prepare a dissertation. It is introduced in the final year where this semester we are required to do Chapter 1 and Chapter 2. Chapter 1 is known as the Research Proposal while Chapter 2 is the Literature Review. This module is taught by Dr. Myzatul Aishah. She was the main lecturer of the module for the first 7 weeks which gave us lectures and to help us choose our area of research. However, each of the students is assigned to different supervisors according to their proposed topic. My research topic is to Investigate Potential Improvements in Public Transportation in Klang Valley.

Moreover, we have also learnt the way to do the referencing as we had a session with the librarian brief on the how to use Mendeley to do referencing. By participating in this briefing, we will then know where and how to search for more journals, books and articles. This helped us to have an in-depth knowledge on our research topic.

My supervisor for my research dissertation is Mr Chee Wai Meng which is also one of my lecturer for Measurment 5. He is an experienced lecturer and has fully guided me as well as giving me good advices during the meetings weekly on how to complete my research and make my dissertation looks more interesting. Besides, he is also very dedicated and have much patience in checking our progress and had always replied us as soon as possible on our drafts through email. I can say that I am very lucky to have a good supervisor which leads us and guide us all the way in this module.
