This study showed the average knowledge and behavior of student towards the research but students lacked participation and facing the different barriers while conducting the research study. Students showed average knowledge and attitude towards research. All students know about the advantages of research project but they did not actively participate in any research related tasks because of the obstacles they are facing. These obstructions must be expressed by giving suitable observation, good mentorship, research funding and awards for students to join in research activities.
