Relationship of Research & Mankind Problems

The development of the society from its simple to its complex state will reveal the many and varied problems which afflict human kind.

Thus, solutions to problems must be based on knowledge, not on mere beliefs, guesses or theories. To acquire knowledge and to continuously evaluate its accuracy and usefulness requires a well planned and systemic procedure on which research has been devised to meet this need.

Research is a human device invented and developed not only to push far the limit the human knowledge but to improve the quality of individual and group life.

This underscores the importance of research, the continued existence and relevance of which will last as long as there is human being who wishes to expand his knowledge and understanding about the world and everything therein.
