Some courses like for you to have a 'research methods' qualification -and it helps with funding in some cases - but it all depends on the course you are applying for.
Sorry if I missed it above but what is your interest? If possible it is useful to talk to tutors that you know already to help you with your application and may be experts in that field. I decided to stcik with the same uni so had my supervisor available to help me with teh proposal from the start, but i know this isn't always the case
Good luck though!
Just found this forum and looks a good place to get advice!
I am currently doing an MA designed to prepare me for my PhD humanities/social science, but what I am finding most difficult is writing my own research proposal for the PhD. I know what I want to do but have been advised that it needs to be as 'technical' as possible. It was suggested I try and find an application that has been succesful in previous years - but this isn't exactly easy!
I was just wondering if anyone knew of a good site/book to help me structure a proposal effectively? I have looked at the fudning websites, but they seem to concentrate on content rather than style!
Thanks
