This study explores the role of Project-Based Learning (PBL) as an innovative pedagogical method in developing research competence among pre-service English language teachers. The paper discusses how PBL fosters independent inquiry, critical thinking, and analytical skills, which are fundamental to conducting educational research. Based on classroom interventions and observations at a teacher training institute in Uzbekistan, the study demonstrates the effectiveness of PBL in enhancing future teachers' research readiness.
