In this blended course you will explore how to prepare an effective research proposal, as for the contents and the structure, and you will start preparing a draft version of your own proposal in stages.

Course Information

This blended course has pre-course activities to complete in your own time and course activities to engage with during the live course.

Pre-course activities (duration about 1h) will prepare you for the live session: you must think about a project (context, motivation, methods, potential results, importance of the project, potential supervisor) you would like to develop during your doctorate, and you will have a video to watch, which will provide you with information, advice and guidance to prepare an effective PhD proposal.

The live course will support you to clarify  doubts about the video, discuss and share information and advice with other students, as well as prepare an outline of your PhD proposal in stages.

Note: The deadline for registration is 2 weeks before the live course to allow the completion of pre-course activities.
