Abstract

Academic research in Social Science in general and Commerce in particular is fast emerging in India. This situation has placed a severe responsibility on the shoulders of educational institutions and research guides to ensure that the standard of research work is maintained on par with the global standards, and its quality safeguarded. To ensure this desired level of quality in research, the evaluation of research report should be more scientific and based on high standards. It is unfortunate that there is no specific and accepted/uniform norms for the evaluation of research report. Each examiner follows his/her own method of evaluation and recommends the award of research degrees. Against this background, an attempt has been made in this article, to provide some tips for the evaluation of research reports in commerce and management.

Keywords: Research Reports, Sample, Data Analysis, Evaluation Report
