The session was held with an intention to emphasize on the importance of research for law students. A general overview of research and legal research, more specifically was given. The idea of research often invokes a mixed response of fear and intimidation. The goal therefore, was to introduce the concept of research to the freshers by eliminating all misconceptions associated with it and to ensure that they perceive it more favorably. Various aspects of research were touched upon including addressing concepts such as reflective thinking, identifying a research problem, understanding hypothesis, objectives of research, research writing, citation rules and so on.In addition to this, the practical application of legal research was also talked about. The target audience for the session was all 1st BA LLB students. The PowerPoint presentation of the useful points discussed in the session was published on the Unit’s blog site: https://rpunit.wordpress.com/2018/09/12/understanding-research/
