Hi all !

I'm new to this forum.
I m currently working on my PhD proposal.
My field is digital art, art theory, art & technology.
The university I'm interested in asked me to send them
a 300 word abstract of what I am thinking of doing as a PhD.
Does anyone know tips on a good presented abstract?

Thank you in advance ,)

Hi Bill,
Wow, 300 words? I struggled to cut mine down to 1000, and thought 500 would be nearly impossible.

Still, if you're exceptionally focused, it must be possible:
Introduction, research objectives, research questions, significance, framework, literature, method, ethics. So, about 35 words each section? Good luck mate.

Hi artista!

Thanks for the reply,
Yeah it seems very difficult, i have an idea of how to
describe only my PhD idea, as they want to see if it is
possible to be a PhD theme. So, I believe they would
except to see
1)Title
2)Main area of interest
3)Theoretical context (theories, artists) that I'll go through
4)Practical field of PhD (How I think of using technology in the practical side of PhD)
5)Methodology
6)Brief bibliography (not count in the 300 words)

Hope I'm not so wrong.
It's my first that I try to take seriously the PhD possibility.
Coming from an MA background it's helpful as it seems familiar process but now things are different! ;)

Thank you
good luck to you, too
