ENGAGE: What does it mean?

CURN 101 · CURN Archives · Engage

What does it mean to engage with research?

As a researcher, you can engage with your research and with your audience! In this process, you will be diving into the world of trial and error where it is essential to think critically, take it one step at a time and be comfortable with the unknown. When in the research environment, you need to apply socially responsible, sustainable and ethical behaviours.

I need more information before I get started, can you help?

Don’t worry, if you have no clue what you are doing then you are already familiar with what being a researcher is all about! We pride ourselves on being lifelong learners, which means we often dip our toes in new things that have us feeling completely lost.

If you need more context on what the research process entails, you might want to spend a few moments exploring our resources on methods & methodologies, ethics & integrity or data & analysis.
