Abstract
It is not an overstatement to say that the level of development witnessed in
the world today: especially in developing countries is a product of research.
In fact, the author is of the opinion thatresearch is "synonymous' to
development as it leads to advancement in all facets of life such as
education, health, governance, agriculture, infrastructure, building,
commerce and industry, transportation, banking and finance, information
technology, engineering, security to mention but a few. This paper takes a
look at the role of research in development. It is aimed at promoting
research in developing countries of the world. A philosophical approach is
adopted while gathering data from a pool of literature, personal observation
of major trends in Nigeria. The paper examines the level of development in
key area of life; as well as highlighting those challenges facing research
development using Nigeria as a reference point. Recommendations are
made in the paper that could promote research development in young
countries of the world. The paper concludes that without thorough research
activities, stagnation in national development and human existence is
endangered. (Word count: 174)
