Your Research Project by Nicholas Stephen Robert Walliman

Your Research Project by Nicholas Stephen Robert Walliman

Essential reading for students at all levels across the social sciences who want a lively, straightforward guide to planning their research project.

I can heartily recommend the third edition of this popular textIt has been up-dated and enhanced to recognise the needs of both undergraduate and postgraduate students who are new to the research process, and deserves to be on every reading list
Graham Stew
Principal Lecturer in Health, University of Brighton

This book is a must have for anyone embarking on a research project. It guides the reader through each step of the research project, providing clear summary boxes and exercises, making it particularly relevant for students and lecturers alike
Kalwant Bhopal
Head of the Social Justice and Inclusive Education Research Centre, University of Southampton

′Having run a PhD programme (comprising over 40 students) for six years and supervised 16 research students, nine to completion, I feel qualified to testify to the value of this book. Learning has become increasingly structured in the last two decades and new research students are often overwhelmed by the demands of PhD study, which requires conceptual thinking, independence, self-motivation and creativity. In my view, this unique publication offers an excellent and indispensable guide to research for first-timers. I wholeheartedly recommend it
Elizabeth Burton
Professor of Sustainable Building, Design and Wellbeing, University of Warwick

The third edition of Walliman′s guide for novice researchers has been thoroughly updated to reflect methodological developments. It retains the unique characteristics which made earlier versions so successful: a theoretically-informed introduction to the research process grounded in an understanding of how individuals learn most effectively

After twenty years in architectural practice in Scotland, England and Switzerland designing a wide range of buildings, industrial, commercial, residential, and renovating and restoring historic buildings, I returned to academic activities when I embarked on a Ph.D. at Oxford Brookes University.    My university teaching and examining experience has been at all levels, with the preponderance at postgraduate level. I have supervised to successful completion twenty Ph.D. students and two MPhils, 1 KTP, and examined 13 Ph.D. candidates. I have published several popular textbooks and guides on construction aspects and on how to do research for students and practitioners and how to write Ph.D. theses, Masters and Undergraduate dissertations.    As Senior Researcher, Oxford Institute of Sustainable Development – Architectural Engineering Group, my research was based mainly on the technology of building construction - innovative, existing and historic, on vernacular architecture, and issues regarding accessibility in buildings and surroundings. My published papers and reports are read internationally and have been presented at international conferences.
