Research or PhD research is a systematic study and experimentation that can generate new knowledge or findings that can directly or indirectly be useful for the developing of society. Research may also involve developing new theories, or application of theories that are beneficial to many. Quality research involves performing the steps in research including problem definition, review of related research, design, experimentation, testing and verification of results and making conclusions following scientific methods and systematic procedures. Quality in research is essential as the findings may be used by many researchers to extend the research work resulting in new findings. In this paper some practical considerations in all the phases of research such as providing the basis for understanding the proposed work, highlighting the need of proposed research in view of existing related work, design of appropriate methodology for solving the proposed problem, experimentation with relevant data, systematic testing, verification and interpretation of results and making correct conclusions are presented. It is concluded that research performed with correct and required focus on each phase and following systematic procedures can lead to quality research.
