Whether you are applying for the MS, MPhil or PhD programmes, your

revise your title during the course of your research if you are accepted for
admission. Your title should give a clear indication of your proposed research
approach or key question

2. Abstract
The proposal should include a concise statement of your intended research
of no more than 100 words. This may be a couple of sentences setting out
the problem that you want to examine or the central question that you wish
to address.

3. Research Context
You should explain the broad background against which you will conduct
your research. You should include a brief overview of the general area of
study within which your proposed research falls, summarising the current
state of knowledge and recent debates on the topic. This will allow you to
demonstrate a familiarity with the relevant field as well as the ability to
communicate clearly and concisely.

4. Research Questions
You should formulate these clearly, giving an explanation as to what
problems and issues are to be explored and why they are worth exploring

You might find it helpful to prioritize one or two main questions, from which
you can then derive a number of secondary research questions. The proposal
should also explain your intended approach to answering the questions: will
your approach be empirical, doctrinal or theoretical etc?

5. Research Methods/Methodology
The proposal should outline your research methods, explaining how you are
going to conduct your research. Your methods may include visiting particular
libraries or archives, fieldwork or interviews.
Most research is library-based. If your proposed research is library-based,
you should explain where your key resources (e.g. law reports, journal
articles) are located (in the Law School’s library, Westlaw etc).

If you plan to conduct fieldwork or collect empirical data, you should provide
details about this (e.g. if you plan interviews, who will you interview? How
many interviews will you conduct? Will there be problems of access?). This
section should also explain how you are going to analyse your research
findings.

6. Significance of Research
The proposal should demonstrate the originality of your intended research.
You should, therefore, explain why your research is important (for example,
by explaining how your research builds on and adds to the current state of
knowledge in the field or by setting out reasons why it is timely to research
your proposed topic).

7. Plan of Work and Time Schedule

You should include an outline of the various stages and corresponding
timelines for developing and implementing the research, including writing up
your thesis.

For full-time study, your research should be completed within three years,

with writing up completed in the fourth year of registration.

For part-time study, your research should be completed within six years,

with writing up completed by the eighth year.

8. Bibliography
The proposal should include a short bibliography identifying the most
relevant works for your topic.
