Should a L3 Q19 R&D agent really only be netting me 11.61 RP/day?
I hear about other people on over 100 a day...
What gives?
I meet their requirements of L2 in Elec Eng' - do further levels in this above their req's *really* help out that much?

Yes, higher level of the research field skill improves RP/day, because the skill lvl acts like an multiplicator. I get ~195 RP/day from my research agent, having effective quality of 32 and lvl4 gallentean starship engineering.
The formula is:
RP/day = (Agent skill level + player skill level)¦ * [(Agent's effective quality/100)+1] * Research Field Bonus
In my case this means: (3+4)¦ * [(32/100)+1] * 3 = 49 * 1.32 * 3 = 194,04 RP/day

Some fields give a multiplier to the RP/day, yours doesn't because it's a very wide field.
I believe you've misunderstood the "requirements" of L2 in elec eng. That is the agent's skill level, you just require L1 to start a project. The higher your skill and the agents effective quality, the more RP/day you'll get.
Agent EQ is affected by negotiation (+5 per level) - Train that up and you'll get more points per day :)
Hope this helps you.

But training up the research skill lvl is much more effecient than training negos, as you can see from the formula.

so, player skill level means the relevant skill (eg. lvl4 gallentean starship engineering). What is research field bonus?
Auction your items for isk, works sort of like ebay. |

Research Field Bonus is afaik a multiplicator given to some field of research that give rare items, like Interceptor BPOs. This Research Field Bonus can be found in the Info Tab of your active research agent.

Negotiations does not directly increase pay, it increases effective quality, which then results in higher pay. Effective quality is also the only way to raise RP/day apart from higher research skills, so negotiations is the way to go.
Connections only influences effective quality if you break a round number in standing (with research agents: >1.0 with skill 3 and 2.0 with skill 5), and each point of standing only increases effective quality by 1. Most ppl have connections at 3 anyway, and getting it to 5 just to get 1% more RP isnt worth it, so nothing to gain from this skill here.
