HDR workshop: Crafting your Research Proposal


In this session, we will discuss the expectations for research proposals and their essential elements. We’ll unpack each of these and look at various examples.

Bring a draft of your proposal for the opportunity to discuss it and benefit from peer review of some of the following: your thesis title (more important than you might think!), your research questions/aims, and the significance of your study.
