Book excerpt: Academics and postgraduate students in higher education often face challenges navigating the complex research landscape, from formulating a sound rationale and problem statement to developing a robust theoretical framework and publishing their work effectively. Many need help publishing their research and making informed decisions, and the current lack of assistance hinders their academic progress and contribution to knowledge production. Emerging academics often need more guidance in research supervision and postgraduate students may require support in writing quality research proposals and dissertations. Enhancing Research for Academicians in Higher Education offers a transformative solution to these challenges, providing a comprehensive guide to rethinking and reimagining research in higher education. Centralizing the research discourse through the concept of Africanization offers a unique, groundbreaking, and timely perspective. The book empowers academics and postgraduate students to develop their research profiles, explore various research approaches and paradigms, and understand research's philosophical and theoretical foundations.
