# Prompt Engineering for Research

A skill for applying systematic prompt engineering techniques in academic research contexts. Covers prompt design patterns, evaluation methodologies, and practical workflows for using large language models (LLMs) as research tools.

## Prompt Design Patterns

### Core Prompting Strategies

| Strategy | Description | Best For | Reliability |
|----------|------------|---------|-------------|
| Zero-shot | Direct instruction, no examples | Simple, well-defined tasks | Moderate |
| Few-shot | Include 2-5 examples in prompt | Pattern matching, formatting | High |
| Chain-of-thought | "Think step by step" | Reasoning, math, analysis | High |
| Role prompting | "You are an expert in..." | Domain-specific tasks | Moderate |
