1. According to David J Luck and Ronald S Rubin, “A research design is the determination and statement of the general research approach or strategy adopted for the particular project. It is the heart of planning. If the design adheres to the research objective, it will ensure that the client’s needs will be served.
2. According to Kerlinger, “Research in the plan, structure and strategy of investigation conceived so as to obtain answers to research questions and to control variance.
3. According to Green and Tull, “ A research design is the specification of methods and procedures for acquiring the information needed. It is the over-all operational pattern or framework of the project that stipulates what information is to be collected from which source by what procedures.

Step in planning the Research design
1. Determining work involved in the project.
2. Estimating costs involved
3. Preparing time schedule
4. Verifying results

Importance/utility of research design
Research design is important as it prepares proper framework within which the research work/activity will be actually carried out. Research design acts as a blue print for the conduct of the whole.

Types of Research design:
On the basis of information to be collected, research designs can be classified into the following three categories:
a) Exploratory research
b) Descriptive research
c) Casual research
 
Research Design , is the first step towards drawing research. Without Research design, you can not accomplish the research , accomplish is very far, without research you cannot even start the research. Research design is the way towards understanding market and finding unsolved questions related to what you want to find. It provides all the answer needed to complete research like what would be the cost of research, what are the factor that can affect research, what is hypothesis and so on.

Hey Friend,

I am also uploading a Notes on Research design and methodology which will give more detailed explanation
