The author in this article highlighted over the outcomes of the module of the study for the
master’s level engineering degree of a student from two universities located in the United
Kingdom. The article illustrated the notion that in spite of having skills of critical and logical
though process, the learners are failing to apply their skills in their academics. The article
highlighted on several recommendations by the authors that the competency level for higher
study in the master’s degree level the learners in the country requires positive and appropriate
approaches towards their research methodologies in their academic modules. Learners should
also have the capability towards proper identification of research methodology, adequate level of
information regarding the topic of research and the need for logical and critical thoughts for
proper analysis and interpretation of the research findings and outcomes. The article illustrated
67% of the learners having the capability towards independent though process, and more than
81% of the learners needing the guidance of their supervisors for choosing their research area or
topic. The information utilized by the author is more approximately 79% from the general
websites and 56% from academic sources like books and peer reviewed journal articles. One of
the highlighted points by the author regarding the absence of the critical thinking among the
students is their different cultural backgrounds and their inability towards understanding of the
concepts.
