Topic name:(Sustainable water desalination)
There could betwo types of proposals:
- For experimental Materials/Devices - based research (tangible)
- For Modelling/Algorithm - based research (intangible).
According to this, there aretwo types of Experimental sections-you only need one section in your proposal -chose the one that is relevant to your type of proposed research.
If you chose to have an experimental validation to your model/algorithm you could add this as well, but not as detailed as in materials/devices proposals. Please just outline this in the evaluation/validation proposition.
Your Research Proposal should contain the following sections (points allocated to each section):
- Title (2pt)
- Abstract (10pt)
- Introduction(12pt)
- Significance (Rationale)
- Connection to the current body of knowledge
- Gap/s leading to need for your project
- Aim, Expected Outcomes and Research Questions (16pt)
- Study Design/Approach (20pt)
- Experimental (for proposed Materials-Centred Study): Materials, Instruments and Methods (24pt)
- Experimental (for proposed Modelling/Algorithm-Centred Study): Underpinning Theoretical Framework, Algorithm/Model Development method/s, Algorithm/Model evaluation and validation) (24pt)
- Data Analysis Methods (6pt)
- Limitations (4pt)
- Timeline (4pt)
- References (2pt)

Please note that:
- The proposal should strictly bethree pages(see the above Templates,References (could be on p.4 if needs be).
- Start with Title
- Make sure to insert your name and student ID under the title as per TEMPLATE
- Insert the subtitle for each section, as given in the Proposal Template.
- Submit your assignments only in PDF format.
- Include only relevant references - they could be on the 4th page.
