Abstract

Any researcher needs to develop a sound research profile to boost his or her standing in the scholarly and research community. Developing a research profile starts with an idea that is brainstormed to develop a research focus. It also includes defining a research niche and stating the rationale and the aims and objectives of the research niche (University of Birmingham). It is to be hoped that emerging academics would, through this input, be in a better position to develop appealing, well thought out, well-organized and professional research profiles.
