Research Proposal – Meaning, Contents and Purpose SUNDAR B. N. Assistant Professor Serious Disaster Outside Series of Desires Inside Disaster Can not Deviate Desires

Introduction Before any research study is undertaken, there should be an agreement between the person who authorizes the study and the researcher as to the problem to be investigated, the methodology to be used, the duration of the study, and its cost. This ensures that there are no misunderstandings or frustrations later for both parties. This is usually accomplished through the research proposal, which the researcher submits and gets approved by the sponsor, who issues a letter of authorization to proceed with the study.

It can be a supervised project submitted to instructors as part of an educational degree or it can be a research project proposed to a funding agency. A proposal describes the research problem and its importance, gives a detailed account of the methods that will be used why they are appropriate.

Reviewers have more confidence that a planned project will be successfully completed if the proposal is well written and organized, and carefully planned.
