How to write a PHD research proposal?

Writing a research proposal is an inherent requirement for PhD applications and other higher-level academic pathways. To get the best start on your future work, your motivations, research question, and potential project value should be communicated in your proposal.

Literature review

A literature review is critical to introducing the scope and current state of the art of your research area. It not only supports your reader’s understanding of the topic at hand, but the process of writing and analysing research within your literature review helps to refine your research questions and proposed solution.
