What is research?
The systematic investigation into and study of materials and sources in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions.
What is proposal?
A plan or suggestion, especially a formal or written one, put forward for consideration by others.
A research proposal “is a document that outlines how you propose to undertake your research studies” (Mouton 2001:p.44).
Definition of research proposal
A research proposal is a document written by a researcher that provides a detailed description of the proposed program,
It is like an outline of the entire research process that gives a reader a summary of the information discussed in a project.
Importance of research proposal
Helps examine what the researcher intends to do.
Research proposal can serve as a document of contract for the project.
Research proposals can be effective starting places to discuss projects with your professors, too.
The research proposal is able to give an overview of the research project so that other people understand the scope of the research, the significance of the research, as well as your proposed methodology and chosen research method.
Advantages of research proposal
Fund to support your research
Allow you to review and critically evaluate your current research program
Convince yourself and others that your research is worth supporting
Keep you focused on your research program
Develop novel ideas during writing proposal.
Relationship of research proposal with research
Research proposal is a plan, and research is action.
Research proposal is compulsory for approving proposed research.
Research proposal is a schedule and research is activity.
Research proposal is a mirror of research
Research proposal is a blue print of research.
Research proposal can serve as a document of contract for the project.
Types of research proposal
There are two major types of research proposal;
Academic:
• An academic proposal is the first step in producing a thesis or major project. Its intent is to convince a supervisor or academic committee that your topic and approach are sound,
Non-academ
Research methodology at students of university
OBJECTIVE Meaning, definition, purpose and components of research design.
Difference between the terms research method and research methodology.
This slideshow explains the complete process of writing research proposal for funding agencies. It is useful for the PhD students, researchers, R& D department of company personnel.

Marketing has never been more interesting than now. The Internet and other new digital technologies are not only transforming the practice of marketing but also the way we think about it (Wymbs 2011). The main benefit of marketing automation is that it can help businesses grow sales and increase brand awareness by maximizing their email contact lists, streamlining processes for lead generation with automated forms or emails, as well as executing personalized campaigns based on information about a prospect's needs. Today, consumers have more choices, more services, more media, more messages, and more digital conversations than ever. Digital-driven changes are not only affecting private consumer’s behavior

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

11. Internal research proposal
Academic :
• An academic proposal is the first step in producing a thesis
or major project. Its intent is to convince a supervisor or
academic committee that your topic and approach are
sound,
Non-academic:
This one is not for degree requirement that is submitted by a
university or a college teacher to some research organization.
12. External research proposal
Solicited:
Solicited proposals are those that are written and
submitted in response to the issuance of a "Request for
Proposals" (RFP), a document that identifies a specific
research problem of interest to the funding agency for
which they are specifically seeking a solution.
Interested investigator then submits a “concept” or
"white paper" briefly outlining their proposed solution
to the problem. If the funding agency or company is
interested, they may then request that the investigator
submit a full proposal for consideration of funding.
13. Unsolicited :
Unsolicited proposals are those proposals that are
submitted by an investigator in response to a "general
call" for proposals that is issued by a funding agency or
company in a field or area of study.
External research proposal
14. Component of research proposal
Title
Precise and accurate
Unambiguous
Avoid extremely long titles
15. Introduction
Orient the readers towards the topic.
Explain the importance and relevance of the topic
Justifies the choice of the topic.
Research question/hypothesis .
Component of research proposal
16. Statement of the problem
“The problem statement describes the context for the
study and it also identifies the general analysis
approach”(Wiersma, 1995, p.404)
Should indicate why the researcher needs to be done
and what will be its relevance.
Conveys information about a research problem.
Component of research proposal
17. Literature review
It shares with the reader the results of other studies
that are closely related to the study being reported(
Fraenkel &Wallen, 1990)
It prevents the duplication of work that has been done
before.
Theoretical framework
A summary.
Component of research proposal
18. Build the case to support the hypothesis with literature
and data---no reinventing the wheel
Seeing is believing: Use schematic figures or diagrams
to help reviewers understand your model and idea
State your hypothesis clearly in the abstract and
specific aims; alternative hypothesis in case
Component of research proposal
