[edit] Academic research
Students do research to write papers. Reading a large number of books about a subject, and taking notes, is a form of research. Authors of nonfiction books do research so that their books will be correct.
[edit] Scientific research
The Scientific Method is a common way to do research. Research is used to improve understanding of Biology, Engineering, Physics, Chemistry and many other fields. This makes it possible to discover new medicines, to make automobiles safer, and to make farms produce more food. Money for research comes from governments, private corporations, and charities.
