Assignment 1 – Research Proposal
You are asked to write a research proposal for your final year project. You may think that this is merely a rough description of what you are going to do for the next year but there is more to it than that. As a matter of fact, it will form the foundation and guidelines for your entire project. The better researched your proposal the easier it will be to work on your project.
It should be a well thought out and structured document with a number of headings, specifically it should include the sections listed below:
- Title
- Background
- Main research question(s)
- Justification/Benefits
- Feasibility
- Proposed Methodologies
- Expected Results
- Conclusion
- References
- Project plan
See the lecture notes for descriptions of the above bullet points.
