There are many considerations in deciding whether a research is good or not. Among these considerations are the following: worthwhile ness, coherence, competence, openness, ethics and credibility. You can also consider a research good when it is original. Original doesn’t mean never been done but rather result from old questions using new techniques. According to the author of an article, a research is good when you get the right answer and can explain the research process.

Research as implied, is an activity of human that requires immense intellectual application on the subject matter to be dealt with. Through choosing a research topic, a student is more likely encouraged and is therefore motivated to get the gist of his interest in his specialization. This actually mirrors a student's potential on overlooking things and analyzing contemporary problems. This would encompass a student's capability and capacity on handling and treating certain phenomena.
USEP is known for having a quality and high standard of education. Anyone who wishes to study in this university must have a good performance, based on their record during high school. Of course, they should also pass the entrance exam and interview for them to qualify to enroll in a particular course. During the first year orientation, Ma’am Madrona told us that IC is home of “intellectual giants”. So being a part of IC is a great pleasure.
Being a part of the university and being an IT student, if I will make a research, I want a study that is related to my course and to my co-student. Maybe a study why students here spend more than 4 years in finishing their course or maybe, a study to find out why and what are the factors that cause for taking the course more than the required year. I think this will help to produce a productive and responsible IT professional that will also produce an effective and productive research in the future.

Based on the article that I have read, Mexico now has remarkably improved the quality and quantity of its computer science research. That is why, according to the author, researchers in United States have been very interested in the methods used by Mexico in improving their scientific competence.
Despite all the constraints, funding for example has been one of the major problem, Mexico still do well. Before, they lack researchers but because of their strategy granting a student with a loan and would be entirely forgivable whenever he or she would returned to an academic career within Mexico, their researchers have been finally enough for their needed human resource. There were many problems they encountered before they finally make it and were able to reach their current status. Bernat says “Computer science is not a field that can be ignored.”
The following are the technical topics discussed in the article:
1. Theoretical artificial intelligence
2. Image Processing and Computer Vision
3. Programming languages and Methodologies
4. Distributed and Cooperative Computing
5. General IT consulting
6. Human Resources training
7. Direct Government Support
