Business Research Skills Worshops

Our research skills workshops provide resources and strategies to help you develop the skills and capabilities to deliver quality research with impact and enhance your assignments. These intensive workshops introduce students to practical research tools and strategies to help them succeed at university and beyond. The workshops are broken down into three parts. Part 1 explores the library services and navigating the library website, searching the databases and how to locate the referencing guide. Part two is based on time management, learning how you use Turnitin and Endnote to assist with your referencing. Part three is advanced research skills. Students will learn superior searching techniques to locate quality sources in both the University databases and Google scholar.
