Problems Encountered During the Scientific Research Process in Graduate Education: The Institute of Educational Sciences

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the problems faced by graduate students when conducting scientific research and to make suggestions for solving these problems. The research model was a case study. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants in the study with questions about the problems encountered during scientific research in graduate education, recommendations for solutions to these problems, and participants’ experiences in terms of their scientific research knowledge and skills. As a result of the discussions, the participants suggested that courses should be more practical and that there should be more taught courses, so that educators can direct students and facilitate access to resources.
