I'd really appreciate a bit of help! I'm
applying for a potential Phd project that is competing for studentship funding.
The overall aims, methods etc of the project have been set out in the advert but
in the application process it asks for a personal statement (750w) outlining the
project your applying for (as well as the usual suitability, what you want to
achieve, research experience etc. Do you think 'outline the project' means to
give a brief research proposal?? I'm unsure because 750 words max, doesn't seem
to me like enough space to fit one in and the project has been set out already!
The response that I've had from the lead researcher is quite ambiguous. He
mentions following the adverts guidelines but then mentions a research proposal
which the advert doesn't!! Thanks in advance for any words of advice!
