Introduction
Research Proposal
Research proposal is aimed to convince your examiner or the committee that the topic of your
research paper is worthwhile and that you will be able to develop your theme. Consequently, this
short summary of your future research paper plays a significant role in moving on to the next
stage of research paper writing procedure.
II. Analysis
a. When writing research proposal, there are some opening paragraph should contain answers to
the following questions:
b. When writing research proposal, do not forget that the Body paragraph is based on certain
questions too:
3. Finally, when we are going to write the last part of our research proposal, base it on the
following points:

• Will you continue writing your research proposal, deepening its focus?
Format Use in Research proposal:
[a] Title
[h] Methodology
[n] References
a. Introduction
b. Literature Review
c. Research Methodology
d. Gantt Chart
e. References
Proper Referencing
A first-class research proposal will include a detailed list of any references you have used
throughout your research. You should also include a bibliography at the end of your document.
If you fail to do so, you will lose marks and your final grade will suffer.
LiteratureReview
A first-class research proposal will also contain a critical review of any literature that relates to
the proposed objectives and goals of the research. To achieve a high grade, you should
endeavour to complete a comprehensive search using solid tertiary sources. This will help you to
find relevant literature that will enable you to conduct the research you are proposing to
undertake.
Ethical Issues
Don't forget to discuss any possible ethical issues that may arise from your methodology whilst
you are conducting your research. You will frequently encounter ethical issues when you are in
the process of collecting your primary data; they often relate to privacy issues and the consent of
any referred organizations or individuals. If you want to achieve a first-class grade on your
project proposal, you should mention this ethical component of your proposed methodology.
GanttChart
A first-class research proposal or dissertation proposal will also emphasize the principal
milestones and their estimated completion dates throughout this section. You can include the
data in table form; however, you will normally earn a higher mark if you present the material of
key activities in the form of a “Gantt Chart”.
III. Conclusion
For the conclusion, while making a research paper proposal or first class research proposal, we
should avoid any kind of vague or meaningless sentences. Our research proposals should be
written in plain English (with some terms, if necessary), incorporating those words that we
normally use. Research proposal should avoid any confusing words - just say what you mean. To
be direct in your research proposals, you need to use personal pronouns instead of passive voice,
you should better compile affirmative sentences instead of negative ones.Be alert to the format
that differentiate between normal research proposal and the first class research proposal.
