Session: Thursday 10th July PM (14.15 - 15.30)

Title: How to Develop Effective Research Proposals

Convenor:

Professor David Shemmings (University of Kent)

Abstract Details

Anyone who has been a member of a funding council will tell you that many of the proposals they see are not well-written. Research questions are often poorly explicated, methods insufficiently related and the literature reviewed too wide-ranging and only loosely tied to research aims. This session illustrates how these problems can be overcome, leaving you in a better position to convince the funding body to do the only thing that matters: Give YOU money! Whether you are an anthropologist or a neuroscientist, if you want to get your proposal funded, this session is for you.

The level of the session is: Accessible
