Abstract:	This study developed, implemented, and improved a comprehensive module on research and how it affected the research skills of tourism and hospitality management students Using sequential-quantitative/ quasi-experimental study, this research generated data from 90 CTHM students and employed self-made instruments (item analysis, diagnostic test, pre-tests, and post-tests). Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, independent samples t-test, standard deviation, and coefficient variation. Results. The control groups' pre-test results were rated low average. The post-test results for the control group showed a moderate but significant improvement from the pre-test. The post-test results for the control group showed a moderate but significant improvement from the pre-test. The experimental group's post-test results imply a significant progress from the pretest. The experimental group got a higher rating than the control group. This improvement in the scores can be attributed to the delivery of the developed comprehensive module on research. The study’s results and findings highlight the importance of institutional support in organizing relevant, college-based engagements related to curriculum, supervision, and instruction, which improve competency development among college instructors in creating educational resources that expose them to the pedagogy of teaching and learning research subjects, as well improving the research skills of CTHM students.
