感谢大家的答复。
我现在在阿大读coursework的master of accting and finance. 没有research methodology 之类的课程。脑子里一点头绪也没有, 打算是关于hedge fund的risk control methods一类的。但是不知如何下笔。
Step 3: Prepare a research proposal
PhD applicants
At UNSW and other Australian universities, it is standard practice to ask applicants to submit a research proposal. The research proposal is used by the School to determine whether it is possible to provide adequate supervision and resources to support your research. If you are accepted into the program, the topic may be reviewed or refined during the course of your enrolment. The proposal is also used to assess your capacity to undertake research. It should demonstrate:
- Clear aims and objectives
- Some consideration of method
- A good command of the English language
- That you are capable of independent and critical thinking
Your research proposal should be 3-7 pages in length and include:
- A discussion of the issues you would like to explore (why it is important and interesting)
- The background literature supporting your project
- An explanation of the way your project would significantly add to the understanding of the topic
- A bibliography of your background literature
MPhil applicants
MPhil applicants may submit a brief research proposal which indicates their area of interest.
以上是unsw网站上的要求。他们要求先提交research proposal, 然后安排导师给你,不让自己联系导师。我申请的是第二个,Mphil. 这个program包括四门课程,其中一门就是关于论文写作方法的。所以我不太清楚他们所要求的research proposal 到底是什么样子的。
