Chair of the Organising Committee

Dear students,

Research does not begin with something grand.
It begins with a small question: "Why is that?" or "Is there another way?"

Through this competition, I hope you will explore a field that interests you, find and analyse sources, and gain the valuable experience of setting out your own ideas logically in English.

For students planning to study at universities abroad in particular, a research paper completed in English can become a meaningful academic portfolio that shows your interest in your intended major, your process of inquiry, your analytical skills and your academic English.

I hope your question leads to your first piece of research, and I wholeheartedly support you as you take on new possibilities.
