Hi Yoganth,
There are two different methodologies that you can choose-qualitative & quantitative. This of course depends on your subject/field of study. e.g. if you want to study some numbers/data & look at possible trends then a quant methodology would be helpful. On the other hand, qualitative methodologies (grounded theory, phenomenology etc) are good when you are trying to understand experiences that a group of people have had, or if you are trying to prove/disprove a theory.
You can read more about research methodologies online:

Please do not confuse 'methodology' with methods. Methodology is a combination of the type of ontology, epistemology & the paradigm that you employ.
So, if you see the reality around you as a simple matter and think that numbers are the best way to tell the tale-then go for quantitative methodology
Or, if you think that reality is contextual & changes as we even talk about it...and the best way to know is by letting yourself be a conduit or a bricoleur, then go for qualitative methodologies.
A great book to study various qualititative methodologies is:
Handbook of Qualitative Research, Second Edition. Editors: Norman K. Denzin and Yvonna S. Lincoln

I'm sure there are other gurus here who are high on quant...so lets wait for them to comment :0)
Feel free to buzz me for any further details on qualitative research, I'll try & add my two cents!
