Research is defined as human activity based on intellectual application in the investigation of matter. The primary purpose for applied research is discovering, interpreting, and the development of methods and systems for the advancement of human knowledge on a wide variety of scientific matters of our world and the universe. Research can use the scientific method, but need not do so. Scientific research relies on the application of the scientific method, a harnessing of curiosity. This research provides scientific information and theories for the explanation of the nature and the properties of the world around us. It makes practical applications possible. Scientific research is funded by public authorities, by charitable organisations and by private groups, including many companies. Scientific research can be subdivided into different classifications according to their academic and application disciplines. Historical research is embodied in the historical method. The term research is also used to describe an entire collection of information about a particular subject. From Wikipedia under the

Q. I am a marine science/biology major and chem minor. I volunteered at a Science Center and have interned at an Aquarium. I wasn't planning on applying to graduate school so I never pursued research, but now I would like to apply to graduate schools. Is it possible to get in without previous research experience. I have done small independent research for a class, but not much else in that arena. I have a GPA of about 3.9. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks!

The discussion board can also be very helpful in helping you find specific solutions. The second one is my group. In the files area, you can find a free open-source EXCEL add-in, documentation, and templates that can grab information from the web using user-defined functions.
