PhD draft proposal

C

Hi all,

I have been short-listed for an arts/business studentship. Prior to the interview, I need to prepare a one page draft proposal to give potential supervisors an idea of how I would develop one of the research topics. Could someone tell me if there are any key points I should remember when putting the proposal together? Also, as it's only one page long - I don't want to waffle, but likewise don't want to be too vague. Any suggestions?

Thanks everyone!

Well, from my own experience when I originally submitted an initial proposal I was told to keep it under 300 words, and on submission of a fairly descriptive blurb, I was asked to re-word it with some examples of questions that could be answered following extensive research included in the main body of the proposal. So that might be something to look at.

Yes, good idea. That's a really great - thanks for your help.
