Writing a research proposal is one of the most important tasks
facing academics, researchers and postgraduate students. Yet there
is a good deal of misinformation and a great lack of guidance about
what constitutes a good research proposal and what can be done to
maximise one's chances of writing a successful research proposal.
Denicolo and Becker recognise the importance of developing an
effective research proposal for gaining either a place on a
research degree programme or funding to support research projects
and set out to explore the main factors that that proposal writers
need to attend to in developing successful proposals of their own.
Developing Research Proposals will help readers to understand the
context within which their proposal will be read, what the
reviewers are looking for and will be influenced by, while also
supporting the development of relevant skills through advice and
practical activities. This book: Explores the nature and purpose of
different kinds of proposals Focuses on the actual research
proposed Discusses how best to carry out and structure the
literature review Examines the posing and phrasing of research
questions and hypotheses Looks at how methods and methodology
should be handled in a proposal Discusses the crucial issues of
planning, strategy and timing in developing targeted proposals
Denicolo and Becker draw together the key elements in the process
of preparing and submitting a proposal and concludes with advice on
responding to the results, successful or not, and their relevance
to future proposals. The Success in Research series, from Cindy
Becker and Pam Denicolo, provides short, authoritative and
accessible guides on key areas of professional and research
development. Avoiding jargon and cutting to the chase of what you
really need to know, these practical and supportive books cover a
range of areas from presenting research to achieving impact, and
from publishing journal articles to developing proposals. They are
essential reading for any student or researcher interested in
developing their skills and broadening their professional and
methodological knowledge in an academic context.
