This basic knowledge of research among the undergraduate students was determined by using a set of questionnaire. The participants were given a set of questionnaire before and after attending the research orientation program. Results: It was observed that the participated candidates improved their skills between the pretest and posttest which is due to well planned workshop/research orientation program.
