In academia, it continuously builds new knowledge and offers new skills for teaching and learning to each new generation of students. Researchers thus play a crucial role in higher education institutions (universities, engineering schools, among others). In industry, research consolidates market leadership and prepares the introduction of new products and techniques. Research activities are based on the development of high-level cognitive skills, which rely on many cognitive abilities that only graduate students can acquire. For this reason, this module presents cognitive and communication skills, information organization methodology, and critical thinking; in other words, some important keys to understanding the fascinating world of Research. Interestingly, students will also apply this knowledge and skills in situ through participation with ISEP researchers who
