Over the years, it has been found that the quality of research output has been far from the much needed standards. A research work must act as a catalyst for further researches to be undertaken in the said field. The quality of research depends on the understanding of the research problem and the output plays a significant role in the appropriate research tools used for the data collection and its analysis. Social Science research assumes significance from the nature of problem being identified and the possible solutions, since, it has a larger impact on the day to day activities of the common man. Hence, a work carried out with accuracy in the results assumes significance for the future of this knowledge driven world.

In this backdrop, Faculty of Management Studies, Banaras Hindu University takes the initiative to organize a National Workshop on Research Methodology & Statistical Analysis using IBM SPSS 19.0 and invite the Research Scholars in all streams dealing with social issues and all the aspiring researchers to participate and deliberate upon.
