Data Analysis
Data analysis is the process of examining, organising, and interpreting data to identify patterns, relationships, themes, and meaningful findings. In academic research, it helps students answer research questions, evaluate hypotheses where appropriate, and connect evidence with research objectives. The appropriate analysis method depends on the research design, data type, study objectives, and university requirements.
