Morphology
The meaning 'a planned and organized investigation' is directly derivable from combining 'research' (organized investigation) with 'project' (a planned piece of work); the compound follows a straightforward noun+noun composition. This compositional pattern is cross-linguistically common (e.g., proyecto de investigación, projet de recherche) and would be immediately understandable to a B1 learner who knows both constituents.
Etymology
Research project is a compound of research (looking carefully for facts) and project (a planned piece of work). Imagine someone with a clear plan who searches books, runs tests, and takes notes to answer one question; that image explains why a research project means 'a planned investigation'.
