Research Proposal

A project proposal is a written document outlining all the information your reader should be aware of regarding your project, including the timeline, objectives, and goals. Your project proposal should summarise your project details and persuade your academic advisors and to support your final year project / dissertation initiative.

Consider:

  • What problem are you trying to fix? 
  • What question are you trying to answer?
  • Aim: What do you want to do?
  • Objective: How are you going to do it? What steps are you going to take?
