Research proposals are a core part of many different educational and professional activities. Theses, fellowship applications, and contract research usually require research proposals. The purpose of this class is to help students understand and apply the way in which research proposals are conceptualized and constructed. Students in this class will develop the skills needed to identify and formulate a plan of research for a specific research question. As part of the proposal writing process, students will learn to how draw on existing theory and research to focus their work and they will also learn how plans for data collection and analysis are included in proposals. The main outputs from the class are a completed draft of a research proposal and presentation that summarizes the proposal.
