It is with great pleasure and a deep sense of responsibility that I present this book titled Research Methodology for B.A. 5th Semester, Gauhati University. This book has been meticulously crafted to serve as a comprehensive guide for students enrolled in the Four-Year Undergraduate Programme (FYUGP), specifically for the course titled "Research Methodology" under the subject of Education. As an integral part of the B.A. curriculum, this subject has been designed not only to equip students with the fundamental knowledge and skills required in the field of educational research but also to foster a deeper understanding of its significance in the academic and professional spheres.
